Michelin Tires
 

I have one funny story and a question to all of you regarding tires. I purchased Azera 2009 last month and have noticed significant road noise (Michelin Energy MXV4 S8 came with my car). And today I found that my wheels are not for the model of 2009 but for 2008. The dealer said that's their mistake and couldn't find the original one that came with my car so they gave me one set of wheels(2008) and tires (Michelin Energy MXV4 Plus) instead. I feel good now but don't know what to do with these. Does anyone have a good idea as to where I can sell the wheels at a good price and which tire I have to use. It looks like Michelin Plus is more quiet than S8. Should I use the Plus? or any tires you recommend other than Michelin?

I've always like Kumho, BFGoodrich and Yokohama tires.

I bought Michelin tires for an Azera 2008 and they are very noisy. By mistake the tire store put on 225/55 which rode smooth as glass. When the put the correct size - 235/55 they were noisy and you could feel every defect in the road. The tire pressure was the same for both.T:mad:hinking about changing brands.

Switched to the same-size Michelin Primacy (about $200 each out the door at Costco) from the stock MX4's after 58K miles on my 2007 Azera. HUGE improvement in ride quality.
