Why choose all-season tyres for your SUV?

All-season tyres support the spirit of mobility that your SUV provides by offering you additional usage capabilities compared to summer or winter tyres.

Indeed, if your SUV is equipped with all-season tyres, you can enjoy good performance even on ground that is no longer road. This means you feel more comfortable and secure behind the wheel of your SUV when driving in poor or unpredictable weather conditions.

Save time and money

All-season tyres are designed to be kept on all year round, which is a considerable saving of time and money:

  • No need to go to the garage to replace winter tyres with summer tyres (and vice versa),
  • No need to pay for fitting and balancing twice a year,
  • No need to store tyres when not in use.

Performance made to last: our guarantee of mobility to the last mile

With summer tyres on a layer of snow, there is a risk of skidding, which can compromise your safety. And if you get into your SUV after an unexpected snowfall, your summer tyres may not be able to get you out of your parking space.

On our all-season tyres, the optimised V-shaped tread pattern offers good grip on snow or on difficult terrain, in winter as well as in summer. This technology also allows water to drain off efficiently to the sides on wet roads. In addition, our Thermal Adaptive Compound, a new generation of tread compound with higher density of silica & carbon black materials, adapts itself to ever-changing road temperatures leading to a better grip in dry, wet or snowy weather.

In other words, if you own an SUV, these all-season tyres give you peace of mind when driving your vehicle. They allow you to drive all year round, save time and money by avoiding seasonal tyre changes and master unpredictable weather conditions with their exceptional grip.

NB: If you can't find a MICHELIN primacy 4 tyre in your size range, don't worry! A MICHELIN primacy 4+ tyre without the "SUV" suffix will fit your SUV perfectly as long as the dimensions are respected.

At Michelin, "performance made to last" is fundamental. It is at the heart of our tyre design. We make sure that our tyres perform to the very last mile, even when they reach the end of their life. And this is of course the case for our all-season tyres.

What's important for your SUV is to ensure that safety remains at the highest possible level with consistently high performance, even at the very last mile. And that last mile is defined by reaching the legal wear threshold. When the tyre wear reaches the level of the wear indicators, the tyre must be replaced.

And since these are tyres you can keep all year round, the potential for wear is better exploited. No more winter/summer tyre rotation! You can keep the same tyres and drive safely until the wear indicators are reached. In addition to saving money, this choice is also a step in the direction of environmental preservation.
