Of course, it is good, it is a performance tire.
1)Comfort and quietness? very good, because treadwear is 2xx, thus the tire is quite soft but the con is that you can not use it for many years. Maybe after 2 years it will become botak.
2)Safetly. It is an asymmetric tire. Thus it has a very damn good road grid no matter in cornering, wet surface, or any. Indeed.

195/60/15 have primacy 4?i thought only have xm2
as far as i know 195/65/15 have primay 4

PS3 doesn't have that size.

For this size Michelin only got the XM2, very old tyre.
You can go for cheaper Conti CC6 and Triplemax 2, both are quite nice.

found the primacy 4 size Lzd linkhere

Ya, am aware of that. If got with PS3 it will be 195/55R15, abit thinner than primacy 4

hmm... just notice that the Conti UC6 looks like a bargain at 176 each

any existing user can provide review?

Settle for nothing less than v12 e2, potenza re003 or ps3.

195 55 15

anyone used primacy 4 for quite some time?

mind sharing me the experience?

RM249.85 for 195/65/15..

very good price.. any idea where can i get such pricing in Johor?

the stock tyre size for that car is 185/55R15.

wouldn't it scrape the fender when you go over bumps if you change to a 195/60R15 tyre?

I suggest that you change to a 195/55R15 tyre instead. but you can get PS3 instead of Primacy 4

Anyone know the price of primacy 4 195/55@60@65/R15 at shop now?? Most of the shop I asked doesnt have stock of this size.

Primacy 4 usually for larger sizes, 195/55 or 50/15 you can try asking for PS3 instead. I think King of Rims in Section 15 got stock PS3 for that size, around RM230 I think when my friend went there few months ago

Other good tyre for comfort & long lasting try search for Turanza. I feel both Primacy 4 & turanza nearly same comfort & performance, but now I migrate to PS4. Very good performance in dry & wet but not comfort & low noise like Primacy(before this) next want to try find Turanza Serenity Plus

Well michelin malaysia website says it has 15 inch for primacy 4. They brought it in quietly a few months after the primacy 4 launch. Currently using ps3, but the wear rate is killing me... lolol

Grip wise?

PS4 the best grip both on dry & wet. Primacy & Turanza nearly same performance but lower grip on wet, overall nearly like PS3.

I see. Thanks for the input

I just installed Primacy 4 in 225/45R16 after Cinturato P7. It’s a bit more comfort and quieter. It also has less road feel (not unexpected). The aquaplaning is actually quite bad. So you need to be careful when driving over puddle in higher speed. Otherwise driving around town is great!

primacy 4 have 225 45 16?

currently using P7 since Dec 2015. clocked around 80k km. No complaint using it again..

but now considering Primacy 4 as well. since hardly clock speed at 120km...

Note that the tyre size I got only comes in 94W loading. I was told that it will have slightly stronger side wall but minimal or no impact on the ride.

In summary, P7 for slightly better handling and fuel efficiency. Primacy 4 for slightly better comfort but less a little in handling and fuel efficiency department. The aquaplaning is also not very good. We are talking minor differences between the two as both are within the same category of touring tyres (not like jumping between UHP or touring)

I am happy with the Primacy 4 for my Golf to be driven around town.

i am driving Acv30..consider big car...i guess too soft tyre not good...
only thing is P7 is old model. no new model is released...maybe low demand except new car original fitted w P7 by manufacture...

If you want something similar to Primacy 4 for quietness with stronger sidewall to reduce the floatiness then Bridgestone T005 is also a good touring tyre choice and also better price in Malaysia (it is actually the same price or more expensive than Primacy 4 in Australia).

P7 may be launched few years ago but is actually quite good. It’s also lightweight and reduce the fuel consumption compared to Primacy 4. With most lightweight tyres there is a slightly higher probability to get lumps. Btw Primacy 4 has thin side wall but the overall tyre is quite heavy I think the tread is hard and dense.

Err... Primacy not that good? i thought it is the best in its category...

Hey mate, I've just installed the same on my Golf too, can you share more of your experience please? I can still hear some noise while driving, anyway to improve this? I might have missed something..
