💡 Is the Michelin Primacy 3 ZP 245/45R19 a Good Tire?
The Michelin Primacy 3 ZP 245/45R19 is a summer grand touring run-flat tire designed for luxury sedans and performance coupes. It delivers strong dry handling and solid wet grip thanks to Michelin's silica-enhanced compound and asymmetric tread design. Ride comfort is good for a run-flat tire, though it produces more road noise than conventional tires due to the reinforced sidewall construction. Tread life is moderate for its category, typical of summer compounds that prioritize grip over longevity. Rated Excellent by TireRack based on 25 consumer surveys, it provides emergency mobility after puncture but cannot match the comfort and tread life of non-run-flat alternatives. Currently priced from $414.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.
