Michelin Primacy MXM4 ZP 245/50R18 100V Grand Touring All-Season Tire 53738
π‘ Is the Michelin Primacy MXM4 ZP 245/50R18 a Good Tire?
The Michelin Primacy MXM4 ZP 245/50R18 is an all-season grand touring tire designed for luxury sedans and performance coupes. It delivers strong dry handling and solid wet traction thanks to its MaxTouch Construction and circumferential grooves, though the run-flat construction slightly reduces ride suppleness. Ride comfort is good for a run-flat tire with controlled road noise, while tread life is competitive for its category. Rated Good by TireRack based on 294 consumer surveys, it provides puncture peace of mind for BMW and Mercedes owners but comes with the typical run-flat trade-offs of firmer ride quality and higher replacement costs. Currently priced from $422.79, it is available through major online tire retailers.

TirePath Editorial Review
"Worth considering if you drive a luxury sedan and want run-flat protection for daily commuting and highway trips. The stiffer sidewall construction can create a harsher ride quality on rough pavement."
