Default Tire Wear

What the Tire wear of the OEM Bridgestones' VS. the new Michelin's? If the Michelins outlast everything else, which a tire rep hinted at, it's prolly worth the extra cost?

400

Destroys the 140 rating of the RE050As with regard to longevity.

The Pilots come with a 48,000 mile wear guarantee.

Are they quieter than the stock Bridgestones? it seems like the 2 most popular tires on this forum are the stock Potenza's and the Hankook Ventus V12's, BUT the Bridgestones are pretty darn loud and wear down fast

They are much quieter. The noise level is down a lot with the Michelin's. Actually more than I expected given the Tire Rack reviews. They are so quiet I can clearly hear even a small stone hit the inside of the wheel well. the biggest benefit is that they drive on wet roads with absolutely no problems.
