Also compare with
Let's compare two of the top tyres in the market: the Continental PremiumContact 7 and the Michelin Primacy 4+. Both are summer tyres and specialise in a touring subtype.
Made in various countries including France, Slovakia, Germany, and the Czech Republic, the Continental PremiumContact 7 scores an impressive 99% in our rating. It's a significant upgrade from the Continental PremiumContact 6 and the Continental ContiPremiumContact 5. Across numerous tests, Continental's model tends to take the first position, especially applauded for its features like aquaplaning - longitudinal, wet circle cornering, wet braking, and dry handling.
On the other hand, Michelin's Primacy 4+ does hold its own with a solid 77% rating. This tyre represents a step up from the Michelin Primacy 4 and the Michelin Primacy 3. In test comparisons, it generally took fifth place, with strength points focused on comfort and reduced exterior noise. This model has been replaced by an improved version, the Michelin Primacy 5.
When it comes to key strengths and weaknesses, extensive test data reveals distinct features. The Continental PremiumContact 7 excels in wet and dry conditions, including remarkable grip and precise handling. However, it does suffer from slightly louder exterior noise and reduced fuel efficiency. The Michelin Primacy 4+, while it offers shorter braking distances and spontaneous steering on dry asphalt, has longer braking on wet surfaces and weaker cornering grip. Not to mention its noticeable issues with aquaplaning protection.
In conclusion, while the Michelin Primacy 4+ is a strong performer, it is outshone by the Continental PremiumContact 7 in most tests. This does not necessarily mean that Michelin's model is an inferior choice - it simply highlights that its strengths are more focused on comfort and noise reduction. Each driver needs to decide which attributes are more critical for their driving style and conditions.
