Need to replace both front tyres 215/55R18 V 99 and I'm not sure what to go for.
Will be either Continental premium 2 or Michelin primacy 3. Have conti's on the back but nankang on the front at the moment that came with the car. Do a lot of driving for work (200/250 miles a day) Anyone had the Michelin and could give some feedback would be great.

Personal choice I would stat with Contis -----unless Michelin decide to extend the range of CrossClimate tyres.
Very happy with the Contis in summer and the Michelins in winter. |

Just looking on Black Circles, and the Michelin Primacy 3 actually look like the better tyre. Better fuel and wet weather performance and less road noise.

The one thing I like about the continental premium 2 is the decent rim protector that the tyre has.
Now for me that's a selling point, however we don't do 200 miles a month in the qashqai. With your mileage I think you will be the ideal person to give us feedback on the Michelins in a few weeks time. |

The Michelin look to have good run protection too on the pic I saw. It be interested to know how they fair in terms of wear rates against the conti's.
