How would you know? You can't even spell Primacy, let alone justify that comment. If they were that bad why are they fitted as standard to many luxury saloons?
Pilot Primacy are decent tyres and you can get them much cheaper than £120. They wear very well, are great in the wet and they give ride smoothly and run quietly. 205/55/16's for my last Mondeo were only about £75 a corner from Costco. I used to get 15k out of a set of fronts on the Mondeo (which is very heavy on front tyres) where Dunlop SP Sport 2000's only lasted 10k.
you noob.
the cars you often find them fitted to are dull repmobiles like your mondeo. they are cheap as chips, so being a noob you got ripped off at £75 a corner.
they lasted 15k on the fronts cos they are as hard as nails. this makes them complete turd because it tends to effect the handling somewhat. they are favourites on rep cars cos they need replacing less, a real poormans tyre. they are designed for costeffecivness, not to be a good tyre
my A4 came with those godawful michelins on the front, i binned them for Conti Sport Contacts. the difference was night and day.
if youre a cheap skate and want cheap tyres that do nothing more than make your car legal, then as noob up there states, they are they rokxxx
if you want a half decent tyre, youll do yourself a world of favours by buying almost anything else.
nice one noob, gonna tell us that slick50 is the best now?
