MXV4s on an Aero?

I strongly disagree. I would NEVER EVER put MXV4s on (any) 9-5 Aero.
I wouldn't even consider the MXV4s for any application except the desire for extended treadwear. IMO, that's all they're good for, because traction is not one of its strong suits. Maybe that's why they seem to last a long time.
The MXV4s are terrible in the rain, not too great in the dry, and way too expensive to replace (even from Sam's Club or tirerack.com) compared to similar tires in the allseason category.
My OEM MXV4s from my '01 LPT wagon sit in my garage (which is the best place for them-off the car, that is). The wagon is currently wearing 225/45ZR17 Goodyear F1 GS-D3 tires on 9-5 Aero rims (Klingon style).
