1 mutual test(s) with detailed data

When looking at the two tyres, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 and the Michelin Primacy 4+, we find each has its own unique strengths and weaknesses, as noted from several tyre tests.


The Maxxis Premitra HP5, designed by Maxxis, is a summer tyre known for its cross aquaplaning proficiency, as it took the 8th spot in the Autozeitung test. However, it does present with drawbacks, such as a delayed steering response and moderate grip level on both wet and dry roads. Despite this, it has a good mileage performance and offers short dry braking distances.


On the other hand, the Michelin Primacy 4+ constructed by Michelin, is a summer touring tyre that has now replaced the previous models, Michelin Primacy 4 and Michelin Primacy 3. This tyre pulled ahead in the tests, securing the 7th and 5th spots in Autozeitung and Autobild's tests, respectively. It has been commended for its comfort, exterior noise reduction, and reduced rolling resistance. Moreover, it boasts high performance potential, excellent handling, and short dry braking distances. And it does all this while providing remarkable mileage and cost efficiency.


In terms of our tyre ratings, the Michelin Primacy 4+ is ahead with 77% compared to Maxxis Premitra HP5's score of 69%.


To summarize, both tires have their advantages. The Maxxis Premitra HP5 offers good performance in terms of mileage and dry braking, but falls behind in steering response and grip. On the other side, the Michelin Primacy 4+ not only excels in comfort and noise reduction, but also demonstrates an outstanding balance between performance and efficiency.


Undoubtedly, customers' choice between the two will depend on their specific driving conditions and preferences. However, if ranking based on tests and overall score, the Michelin Primacy 4+ stands out as the better choice in this comparison.
