I have run many sets of Michelin, the most miles I have ever gotten is 80K, good in my book.
The problem I have been reading about concerning Michelin is that there seems to be problems with the newer tires, its my understanding that the compound in the tires was changed.
I am currently very satisfied with my current set of Firestone tires, and may get another set when these ware out. I have also heard good things about Nitto, they have some great specs and may give them a try. Unless I start hear good things about Michelin, I will probably not buy a set given the current information that I have.
Unfortunately things do change and a lot of times not for the better.
Good Luck!
