An excellent tire, that costs less than the original MXV4's, is the Continental "ContiTouring Contact CH95". I have experience with these all-season performance tires on 2 BMW's (5 series sedan and wagon) and will use them on my 9-5 wagon when it's time to replace the Michelins. They are quieter, have excellent wet weather traction (AZ monsoons), even tread wear, and last 40k plus. 215/55-16's are ~$85 from tire rack. A plus to these tires is they have a low run-out, and are well balanced (minimal balance weights needed). Needless to say, I am impressed by these tires. My two cents worth...
