I am happy with my MXV4 Plus, but they are not awesome in the rain and they tend to talk to me when I am pushing the car a bit while cornering. I don’t like the squealing. I have read others comment about the squealing during less than extreme cornering, so maybe this is a fault of the Michelins. I am thinking about trying the Bridgestone LS tires. Luke seems to prefer them and, based on the Tirerack tests, they seemed to beat the Michelins in performance with almost no loss in ride comfort or road noise. The Bridgestone tires are also supposed to be very good in the rain. As I said above, the Michelins are not that great in the rain. The Michelins really are very smooth and quiet, except during hard cornering, and that is why I find it hard to select a different tire.

I would not consider the Continental. Michelin or Bridgestone tires for me.

You feel you love them too much, or you are just too stupid to know any better.
