Best tires for 460?
I bought my 2007 460 a year ago and it had brand new Michelin PIlot Sport A/S Plus tires on it (former owner put them on before selling it). After 15k miles, they are worn out. They ride and handle great but do not last long. What is the best tire for a quiet, comforatable, safe ride that gets good treadwear?
Thanks

Oh, no, I haven't. My car has sat for weeks and been fine. Now I also make sure to run the tires at about 37 psi cold and have nitrogen in them. Also, I have a weight rating of about 98-99 on them and they are XL or extra load spec tires. So they corner well and the comfy suspension even it out. I also upsize the tires one above factory to give a little more rubber between the rim and curb/road. It's minor, but it's a combination I've found works well and looks great.
Michelin tires overall on 4 different cars I've had with them all have had great results. I just happen to love the overall benefits of the SS tires.

No, i mean : sometimes on certain tires with Over-night parking or parking for a few days create a temporary flat-spot that will drive out after a few miles but also cause vibration until you put a few miles on the car. I have a car I drive once a week or at most once a month and flat-spotting is annoying. Some tires is more sensitive to this than others, I was wondering if you witness any signs of temporary flat-spotting on the Pilot SS?

I've never experienced flat spotting with any Michelin. I did have it really bad with those cheap *** Pirellis. Id pull out of the office and on the way to the freeway my radar detector would shake a little.

Pirellis and Bridgestones are terrible. Actually had the Lexus salesman question me on why I insisted my new car have michelins on it. Asked if I thought a company like Lexus would put bad tires on one of their cars. My response, what are you going to say if in 12 months they are noisy, have issues, or are already needing replacement. Likely I'll be told "they are a wear item and there is nothing they can do. So lets just skip that scenario and put the Michelins on". Mmmmkay? That'd be great... And I'm gonna have to ask you to come in on Saturday
