Randall, I'm on the second set of Michelins with the Boxster. The first set were Pilot Sports and lasted 20,000 miles. The second set (need to be replaced very soon) are PS2's and are over 20,000 miles. They have been excellent tires. My 3rd set (early next driving season) will also be PS2's unless Michelin starts making the new Super Sports in my 19" sizes. They currently do not.
I actually have Kumhos (2 sets during my ownership) on the Turbo. They have been excellent, and the price is better than excellent. Rears last about 8-10,000 miles. I am not capable of out-driving these tires. But, I'm tempted to buy "a better tire" in the future, but it's so hard to beat the Kumho value proposition.
I don't drive in the rain. And tire noise in not an issue for me.
