    These MICHELIN have really impressed me on my Mini Cooper. Braking from 100 km/h is impressively short. Wear after 7,500 km is minimal, plenty of tread left. About 7,500 km in 1 weeks so far.

    MICHELIN 215/40 R18: top marks after 2,800 km

    From the first kilometres these felt right. Wear after 2,800 km is minimal, plenty of tread left. Road noise is pleasantly quiet, even at motorway speeds. The verdict after 4 weeks and about 2,800 km. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

    Een gemengd eindoordeel na 1 maand. Bij remmen in de regen mist het laatste stukje. De grip is oké, maar de reserves zijn beperkt. Voor de prijs in orde.

    Primacy 5 - guter Kauf nach 3.200 km

    Nach 3.200 km ein ehrliches Fazit: gut, aber nicht überragend. Bei Temperaturen über 30 Grad bleibt das Niveau konstant. Die Lenkung reagiert schnell, im Grenzbereich könnte mehr kommen. Montiert an einem Audi A3, gefahren überwiegend im Pendelverkehr. Preislich attraktiv, qualitativ gut.

  • Oskar Neubauer09/27/2026
    5.0 / 5

    Der Kauf hat sich gelohnt. In Kurven bleiben sie absolut berechenbar. Bei Starkregen keine Aquaplaning-Probleme, die Reserven sind gut. Montiert an einem Honda Jazz, gefahren überwiegend gelegentlich mit Anhänger.

  • Sergio O.09/08/2026
    5.0 / 5

    Guido con questi pneumatici da 10 settimane e mi soddisfano pienamente. Il comfort sulle lunghe tratte è eccellente. Guidati su una Alfa Romeo Giulietta, principalmente su tragitti brevi.
