Exora and Michelin Primacy LC


I just managed to trade in the standard Goodyear Assurance tires with the Michelins. Somehow the shop agreed to the deal, where I get the Michelins for RM265 a piece with the Goodyear going off with RM100 a piece.



So far, so good.

The feel of the Primacy LC is directly felt, especially on the comfort and quietness. Bumps and road noise are instantly negated, and traded with smooth ride and better Abbey Road numbers!! The roadholding is also much improved with the Exora able to confidently take long corners at high speed.

Now I am taking note on the fuel efficiency. Since my previous Waja clocked a reduction of up to 15% fuel consumption, it is interesting to see if the Exora manage to get similar results. It is really raining cats and dogs as I am writing this, and will be testing its wet performance. I remembered that on the Waja, the Primacy LC is one excellent wet wonder!!!

OK, got to go and wet it out!!!
