Quiet(er)
Long(er) treadlife (Use dependent)
(Better) Heavy rain grip

However, you will sacrifice performance. Initial dry grip when pushing it, and most noticeably cornering. It's really depressing having to break from getting Michelin PSS' to V12's due to cost as a temp replacement. I can't take turns at half the speeds I could with the PSS'. It's sad, but right now I need tread life more than grip. (Even though my front's are still at 70% from buying last summer. If I hadn't done some demo vids, I'd still have the rears on too probably, oh well. )

Definitely, also give your tire pressures a check too to see where they are at.
