I had previously Michelin Primacy fitted on Renault Latitude 175Hp as stock tyres when i bought the car and next i choose to fit the Azenis F510 on my car after your site reviews and recomandations. Comparing the two brands, i do not see much difference excepting the price. So, for a regular driver not a rally one, living in a mountain area with moderate summer temperature as 34 celsius during summer max, the cornering is smooth, with no indication of under/over-steering, lateral grip safe until 80 km/h and 65 km/h in needle cornering but these figures could be due to the car brand/type as Latitude is more comfort/family not a sport car.
During heavy rain, didn't noticed aquaplaning effect until 90 km/hr could be more, I haven't guts to push more ... As braking figures I have no clue how many meters, I do believe the site measurements, but stepping on the brake the ABS kick in late or almost none, indicating a good grip on asphalt .
I am not a proffesional tyre evaluator and my comments need to be considerrated accordingly but I do highly recommend to be bought. As I have around 7000km rolling on these tyres, I have no indication of how long will last, but until now no visible sign of wearing.
