I'm fixing to put Michelin Primacy mxv4's on my max tomorrow. After researching it to death, I just got to go with what I know will be best.

I thought about putting the michelin hydroedge on to save a few bucks but talked to a couple local tire guys that were straight up and said they would be great for about 20,000 miles and then be awful. The hard rubber is not really meant for a low profile tire. Continentals were only $12/tire less. Yoko's were close to that. The khumo's were priced nice but its probably only a 30,000 mile tire and I dont want to fool with that. He told me the Yoko's were nice tires but really overpriced for what they offered.

So I'm going with what I feel will be the best. Michelin's haven't let me down yet. Pretty stoked. Hate that we have 9.5% sales tax, but I am glad we dont have any income tax.
