The Michelin Primacy 4 is a summer tyre that is a successor to the Michelin Primacy 3. It is predominantly manufactured in Spain, Germany, and Poland. Known for being a touring tyre, our website has rated the Michelin Primacy 4 with a score of 89%. The Michelin Primacy 4 has been particularly praised for its dry braking and wet circle cornering abilities, as shown in its 3rd position in the ADAC tyre tests out of 16 total tyres. It also secured the 5th position out of 53 tyres in the Autobild testing and 3rd out of 20 in the Autozeitung test. The Michelin Primacy 4 has proven to be an all-around good performer, with the ADAC 2022 test summary highlighting its strong performance on both dry and wet roads and relatively low wear. However, the Michelin Primacy 4 has been replaced by a newer model, the Michelin Primacy 4+.
On the other hand, the Dunlop Sport BluResponse is another outstanding summer tyre option. This tyre has a total rating of 83% based on our evaluations. The Dunlop tyre stood out for its abilities in cross aquaplaning, dry braking, and interior noise suppression in the ADAC tests, securing the 5th position out of 16 participant tyres. It also placed eighth in the Autozeitung tests. Particularly remarkable is Dunlop Sport BluResponse's 2nd position rating in the ACE tyre tests, featuring a broad array of winning features, such as Ford aquaplaning (both cross and longitudinal), dry driving behaviour, and handling in both wet and dry conditions. According to the ADAC 2022 summary, this tyre exhibits excellent performance on dry surfaces and in wet aquaplaning situations, despite minor drawbacks in wet braking. Check the details and the newer model of this tyre here.
In conclusion, the Michelin Primacy 4 and Dunlop Sport BluResponse are both excellent summer tyre choices. Nevertheless, the Michelin Primacy 4 seems to have a slightly better generalized performance, whereas the Dunlop Sport BluResponse particularly excels in hydroplaning situations and interior noise suppression while having slightly weaker wet braking.
