Don only Firestone slicks are worth buying. :-) Michelins suck these days; my buddy Phil spent 700 dollars for a set of useless LT's and he can't go anywhere in the snow with them. I have a set on my Suzuki Jeep and they SUCK in the mud, and even light snow means I have to put it in 4 wheel drive. I will NOT buy Michelin again; I think the Asians have beat them again; hell even my old Woo-Sung 820's were better than this.
