Thanks for the input. I am really looking for a replacement with good wet
traction, decent treadwear, and a lower price than the Michelins. For the
price the OEM Michelins cost vs how they perform, I refuse to purchase them,
I live on the east coast, where we get rain, snow and such, and this tire is
a hazard. I think, I am going to replace it with a set of a decent H rated
tire. Thanks.

By all means then consider the Yokohama Avid H4S. I have found it to
be an exceptional tire for wet traction at a much lower price than the
OEM Michelins.

For the next set of tires, you may want to rotate the tires so that
they all wear evenly, maximizing tire life and avoiding odd handling
characteristics that may occur if tires at one end are worn down much
more than tires at the other end.

I got a set of H-Rated Kuhmo HP4's they do the job and are quiet too. And
the best part is, they cost less than half the price of the OEM MXV4.
