Getting close to the wear bars on a current set of Michelin Pilot Exaltos on my '06 9-3 SC.
Comparing prices on Tirerack, they have Kumho Ecsta LX Platinums for $91/corner and Pilot Exaltos at $126/corner, both V-rated or better.
I've been very happy with the Michelins and will go back to them if I can time the purchase with one of their $70 rebates but does anyone have real-world experience with those LX Plats? [I know they're a 'Grand Touring' tire instead of a high-performance tire, etc.] Some of the owner reviews indicate inconsitent tire quality and that's one thing I appreciate with the Michelins -- they've been top-notch.
Inquiring minds want to know... Thanks!
