Great and quiet tyres
Replaced my Bridgestone RE-003 with these as I wanted a quiet tyre on my Skoda Octavia which is a quiet car. These were very grippy and silent. Made driving on the highway and city a breeze.

Best tyres I've ever purchased, over 100,000km on the set so far
Excellent tyre for its whole life
I'm writing this, having finally pulled these off my car after 5 years, and 65000 km. Most tyres are designed to cover 50000, so to get 65000, I'm actually impressed. Sure, I had plenty of highway in that time, but a bunch of city driving and for the last year, a heap of poor country roads with lots of potholes. I have a Mazda 3, so normal car, and general use in lots of contexts. Even towed trailers a few times, so I wasn't exactly going easy on them. They still had tread, but it was time to retire them. I paid a little more for them at the time than some options, but absolutely no regrets. If you're on the fence, these are definitely a good choice, from someone who put them right through their paces.
Best dry and wet... Supergrip .. handling fantastic
Best handling grip dry and wet
Review for the first 70K on Primacy 3 ST Tyres (235/60 R18)
I purchased these tyres for my 2016 Lexus NX 300h because I wanted good handling, braking, comfort and importantly reduced road noise. The tyres delivered all of the above for the first 50K, then they started to develop a rumble between 50 - 70K/hr that sounds like the wheel bearings are about to collapse, which has continued for the last 20K. I think I may try Michelin Pilot Sport SUV 225/60 R18, Primacy SUV 225/60 R18 or e.Primacy in the same size next time depending whats available.
It is way too fragile.
Near brand new tyre, only 3400km onit, this afternoon accidentally mounted on the curb and it was flat with a big hole on the side. Not repairable.
Disappointing tyre
Poor front end grip in dry, easily attivates abs a squeals front tyres during higher speed hard braking (dry). Steering feel is vague but this may be the car, loud road noise at 100k. Pressures were OK. The Camry Hybrid really needs better quality tyres.
93,000 km and just looking to replace the original tyres on my AWD Honda CRV
I have mostly driven on the highway for a commute that is an hour to 90 minutes each way, so there is less ware and tear on the tyres than short trips or having to constantly stop and go style of driving.
