I'm surprised by the reaction to MXVs here. I haven't noticed a noise problem, but I've used this series for almost ten years, first on BMWs, now on Saabs, including OE on my 9-5, so maybe I'm inured to it. I replaced the OE Pirellis (P2000s?) on my 900 with MXVs (now on her second set of MXV4+s) and found them superior in roadholding and, especially, longevity. I had a 3-series BMW that achieved almost 70k on a set of MXVs (although I was meticulous about tire rotation), and they still had substantial tread left when she received a new set of MXVs. What problems, other than noise, should I be aware of here?
