Need replacement for Michelin MXV4's on a 200q20v

[Ben Swann]

IMHO - In short - be glad as the MXV's are (expletive deleted) and the the XGTs are uncomparable.  I regret not paying the extra money for XGTs as I recently got Yok AVS dbII- OK, but just not as good in all extremes as the Pilots were.

On that, i hear the Conti-extreme are a good tire nearly on par with the XGT's but not so expensive.  I'd have gotten them instead of the Yoks except thay were 6 months back ordered then.  Must be good if the demand outstripped the supply - that is what I'd have gotten if they were available, but no experience except for the great positive feedback from thos that had.

Audi drivers,

I've had Michelin MXV4s on my 200Q20V for ages and ages, but they've been 
discontinued and I now need a replacement. The shop recommends the XGT V4s, 
but the comments I've seen are that they don't perform that well in the 
wet. Living in Seattle, good wet performance is a must. Bridgestone 950's 
have also been recommended, but I don't know anything about them. Any 
experienced input you've got would be welcome!

Thanks,
Dave ]
