About This Tire

The Michelin Primacy MXM4 ZP 245/50R18 is an all-season run-flat tire, designed for luxury sedan and coupe drivers who prioritize safety and convenience in everyday driving. Its run-flat technology and tread compound focus on maintaining mobility after puncture while delivering balanced all-season traction including light snow capability.

This tire features Zero Pressure (ZP) run-flat construction that allows temporary mobility for up to 50 miles at 50 mph even after complete air pressure loss, eliminating the immediate need for roadside tire changes. The grand touring design incorporates Michelin's silica-enhanced tread compound and asymmetric pattern optimized for wet and dry grip, while maintaining the M+S rating for light snow conditions.
