I had Michelin..

MXXX's OE on a '99' that I replaced with Kumho MX tires. On the 06 we have PS2's.

In no particular order I rate them:

Noise---MXXX, PS2, Kumho
Dry Trac--tie both Michelins
Wet-----PS2, Kumho
Responsiveness--MXX, PS2
Wear--MXX, Ps2?, Kuhmo
Price--Kumho, MXXX, Ps2

The PS2 has a softer side wall then I expected and I've bumped tire pressure to 32 front to offset that. The MXXX had razor sharp reflexes, wore for 30K, were quiet but don't get caught in a downpour with them. Kumho was cheap, decent traction and would make a good track tire if shaved. The PS2 is a very good all around tire but expensive.

YMMV...
