One thing that was mentioned very early in this thread. New tires need about 500 miles to wear off the "mold release" used in the manufacturing process. Don't judge your Michelins until you have some more miles on them. I have noticed this on all Michelins I have installed, and Tire Rack also cautions about it.
Those tires have about 20,000 miles on them at this point, and saw no improvement after miles were added.
