I don't mean to get people "started" on this question, but... What is wrong with Michelins, especially Energy MXV4's? Before I joined this list, I did a net search and found some sort of a hybrid FAQ/mailing list/survey about various brands of tires. Most of the comments collected seemed to be from driving enthusiasts (various car brands, driving types). While there were some detractors, the general consensus seemed to be that MXV4's were among the better choices for daily-driven tires that coped well with snow. Also, a highly-respected & recommended multi-brand tire dealer in Seattle (Upenieks Tire) said they were excellent for my '88 5ksq in our usually wet weather. The more I read this list & check the archives, the more I find negative about Michelin. Are they just bad for Audis? Quattros? BTW, I paid $400 for a set (w/install) a couple months ago and am quite happy with them. This is more for future reference. My wife's '94 Jetta GLS has Michelin Alpines on the front and we've done well with them in all kinds of weather.
