Is the Michelin Premier A/S the New Touring Tire Benchmark? (04:32)

Category: Tires

Featured: Michelin Premier A/S

Michelin set their sights on being #1 in Grand Touring All-Season, and has aptly named their latest.

The Premier A/S delivers long wear and a smooth ride while also emphasizing wet traction -- not just when new, but through the tire's life when wet performance typically falls off vs. a new tire.

Does the Premier A/S premiere in first place in our testing?
