These tires are way better than the Michelins Energy or Primacy. Tread is more aggressive and the staggered in tread grooves grip really good on wet Las Vegas roads (which are usually oil slicks when it rains, when we get any). I would choose these over Michelin or Hankook any day. Are on my 2018 Ford Fusion.
