In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from France (
Michelin) against a tyre from a manufacturer from China (
Linglong). Generally,
Michelin summer tyres are slightly better rated (84%) than
Linglong (56%). In this particular case, the Michelin Primacy 5 has a better rating of 84% compared to 71% of the Linglong Sport Master. The first tyre test of Michelin Primacy 5 was done in 2025, compared to 2023 when was the Linglong Sport Master first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
ADAC 2026 225/50 R17 test, where both the
Primacy 5 and the
Sport Master were tested.
