Tire Suggestions?
Go Michelin!
After much research (this forum, online reviews and articles, Consumer Reports, interviews with local tire stores) I decided that the Michelin Primacy MXV4 would be the best choice for me. Why? Best combination of mileage, quiet ride & comfort, performance, fuel economy and safety. I considered the Exaltos, but although they offer a slight performance edge, the mileage warranty is 33% lower.
My total cost for 4 tires, mounted & balanced, alignment and road hazard warranty, including tax and disposal fee: $513 at NTB. They were willing to match my best deal, and I received competitive quotes from 4 dealers. Even Tire Rack can't beat this.
Now after a couple of months I couldn't be happier. The ride is as smooth as silk, and fuel economy is as good as ever. It's true that new tires always feel better than the old ones, but the car never felt this good.
Cheers,

I found that michelin ad in the auto magazine, I mentioned earlier. It was for the HydroEdge tire. I saw some customers say it ran for 90K+ miles, another over 100K. About $115 each but I read they are a little noisy.
