Hydroedge

Car is a 98 E 300D. Question about using the new Michelin Hydroedge tires. I know they are T-rated, but they have fantastic tread life, 780, with an 80,000 mile warrenty....rated excellent for the wet.
Anyone have experience with the tire?

and the 80k warranty will not be valid for your car because the minimum speed rating for your car is "H" and lower rated tires flex more which creates more heat and the result of that is more wear
