Now that you've had yours a while, I trust you are still pleased with them?
I never considered Michelins much in the past, because they used to be so damn expensive compared to many decent alternatives, but that seems to have changed.
What I ordered today were reasonably priced for the sizes I need, a bit more than the Asian brands, sure, but not in the stratosphere like Pirelli. 
I've had Pzero's on the car since 2003, and I always described them as merely "ok" tires. No real complaints, but nothing outstanding about them either. Certainly not impressive enough to spend $550 per tire on them today.  |
Still smiling ear to ear
As I have posted before, I have NEVER owned a Michelin tire before for the very reason you state above… I have used more than a few BFGs though!
Being a traditional skeptic, when I was given the literature and spoke with the tire designers, it just sounded too good to be true
I have never been impressed with the handling difference between ANY quality street tire………….until the PSS came out and I tried it.
The cost has come down as they are narrowing their tire line and are LISTENING to their consumers and their feedback. More than a few of us “Influencers’” were critical of their pricing structure so I like to think this helped them stand back and look at the big picture.
Much quieter than the KDW2 due to smaller tread blocks but with a thin convertible top, I noticed a very faint tire whine with these on certain roads.
Most folks would never hear it so I would classify it as a non-issue.
I look forward to your feedback after some fun on the twisty roads wet or dry as the grip will be………… well you tell me what you didn’t like
