You Vote. We Test. The Room Sees the Results.

Earlier this year, the industry was asked a simple question: which tyre should be put under the microscope. The vote was cast, the decision was made, and the result was clear.

The tyre selected by the audience was the Michelin, Primacy 5. That choice now shapes what happens next. Independent testing will be conducted on the selected tyre, with the full methodology, data and analysis unveiled exclusively at the Tyres USA Conference.

Think of it as the industry drawing the starting line together, then watching the evidence unfold in real time. The results will not be released elsewhere, making the conference the only place where this chapter of the story is told in full.

Make sure you’re in the room, if you want the results!
