Michelin Energy MXV8 review

[nthach]

The Energy MXV4 series are mediocre for being Michelin - they're designed mostly as an OEM tire for BMW/Mercedes/Honda/Lexus fitments as they are low-rolling resistance and have more of an emphasis on ride comfort. The orignal MXV4s were designed for the heavy Mercedes W126/W140 and BMW E32/E38 7 Series as an OEM and OEM replacement tire, but it found its way to Honda as OEM on the Accord except for the DX.

The newer Primacy MXV4 is a leap and bounds improvement.

I got 45k out of the MXV4s on three different Accords. Stiff and loud,particulary,at the end. Goodyear Comfort Treads cured the stiff and loud and are the most comfortable,quiet tire I have ever run. Got 30k on 2 sets on my current Accord. Just the way I like for them to wear out. 5/8 warranty credit applied to the replacement set of tires. All I'm out is the additional $60 for DT to balance and mount them. I've got fresh rubber and another 80k warranty. FZ1 is a Maven. Happy Holidays all.
