To Taka's comment on price and to both Chris and Taka's praise of the Pilots
I do agree despite commenting on the P Zeros.  I got the P Zeros for the
//S6 'cuz the Pilot's were I thing 2x the price.  My //S8 came with the
Pilots and they are amazing IMO.  Heavy rain + 85mph down I-95 = Not a
worry.

So...if you don't mind spending the bread, I would support Taka and Chris'
opinion wholeheartedly and go for the Pilots.

I have a set (stock 16" size) of the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S.
When shopping for tires my requirements were:

Good traction for dry, rain and sometimes snow. We get some early
and late snows in SW michigan.

I run Snows in the winter.

The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires have performed quite well and 
I am very happy with them.

YMMV
Chris
