    2004 BMW 330i ZHP - 235/40/18 square setup - Michelin Primacy MXM4

    This will be my next set of tires....here in about a week. I will post my review here.

    Pretty decent read here about some of the new technology they're putting into the tires.

    Not to be a douche but why not try a set of summer tires? You will enjoy them much better.

    I don't think summers will last as long.

    Pilot Super Sports are warrantied for 30k miles. PS2's were only 20k. Only applies to square setups where you would allegedly rotate the tires, not staggers, but that would be OK in your case. I have them on both cars, they are a FANTASTIC tire.

    Yup. Probably the best tires out there. I hear a lot about them.

    It would be about $210 more to go with Super Sports. May pull trigger if it's in the budget.

    It may make a believer outta me, as I've never had a set of summers on the car, and really am not much of a tire snob....but look for more budget friendly tires.

    P.S. Not calling anyone a snob.

    You can justify summer tires for safety reasons too. The braking distance and handling will be better on a PSS than those Primacy's. Aren't those what a Prius comes with? You have a performance-oriented car on modified suspension. Why negate those upgrades with no-season tires?
