Product description & features
The Michelin Primacy 3 is a high performance tyre designed to enhance fuel efficiency and deliver better braking.
Michelin have awarded the Primacy 3 with their Green X badge - a symbol that the tyre has met their exacting standards for low rolling resistance.
The tyre feature a new generation tread compound and is constructed with a symmetric tread pattern.
The Primacy 3 is designed with a central rib and large shoulder blocks - this combination helps to ensure drivers enjoy responsive handling and a stable performance from the tyre, even at high speeds.
Inside the carcass of the Primacy 3, Michelin have used twin steel belts to better reinforce the integrity of the tyre - aiding in a balanced ride quality and long life performance.
Primacy 3 tyres are available in 16 inch, 17 inch, 18 inch and 19 inch rim tyre sizes.
Michelin's use of an auto-blocking sipe technology in the makeup of the Primacy 3, with a unique and patented rubber compound, helps to deliver you with a good performance on wet roads.
The Primacy 3 delivers a durable performance with a high level of longevity. This is thanks to Michelin's use of an abrasion resistant tread compound, alongside an optimised contact path. These work to evenly distribute the tyre's pressure evenly and reduce the levels of heat that builds up when driving. For more mileage and a longer lifespan.
The Primacy 3 is currently manufactured in 2 variants of tyre:
Please note: before you select your tyres, ensure that the tyre size that you intend to order are the correct variant and matches your vehicle type.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
