My DH needs 4 new tires on his 2001 with 200+K. Looking for reco on tires that will last. He drives around 40K year now, mainly highway. He's has Michelin Primacy on now I think and he tends to like to stick with the same brand but thought I would ask for some expert advice.

If the tires on the car now are Michelin Primacy, they are most likely the MXM4, the same tires I have on my car. I like the tires very much. They are fairly quiet, handle well, and great in the rain. The one thing they are not good for is tread wear. These tires don't last very long. However, for myself, I plan on getting the same tires again as I don't put on many miles each year. If you are looking for a Michelin, you can go on tire rack and see the ratings of their other Michelin tires. Good luck.

If you encounter snow and drive hard the rest of the year and don't mind road noise higher than other tires the crossclimate + is outstanding, handles just like a real 3 season most of the time and is severe snow rated

I was wrong. He has the Michelin Defender T+H on there now and decided to go with the same. Just ordered the same Michelin Defender T+H 225/60R16 (80K), installed at Costco for $522. It was $110 savings of regular price. Don't think we're going to do much better than that.

Michelin has a new model with noise shield technologie and it is 50% more silent then the most silent Michelin. I have this technology in my Dunlops... I was a Michelin man before but when this came out only Dunlop had then and I am very happy. I wont go back.

Running Pirreli P7 All Season Plus on the wife's daily driver. Absoluetly love them. Only down side is they have a lower rating in wet vs comp. They have been rock solid in the few heavy rains I have encountered. But i live in a dry climate. The ride and handeling are perfect for the LS 430 set up IMO. Can't go wrong unless you are in very wet climate.
