According to tirerack these tires are super awesome, if theyre within your budget.

Also on tirerack you can narrow down the review to driving style, vehicle etc., to give you a real idea of how theyd work on your car.

Wish I could afford...

I’ve run these tires, and they are excellent. In fact, just about any Michelin tire is great. Michelin is the only tire I buy strictly on brandname. I can honestly say I’ve never met a Michelin that I did not like.

I had these on my Z for about 5,000 miles and while they are great tires for the street, I almost had them corded after 2 1/2 track days. I would say they have the same grip as a max performance summer tire with the comfort and quietness of an allseason type of tire.

This is what mine looked like when I got them replaced

Do you have a professional/business agreement with Michelin?

Default I like them...

I went with the OEM's for about 6k miles and then switched over to Michelins (PS2). I've had them for about 11k miles. They are wearing well and still grip very good. I'd purchase them again and probably will when these wear out..
