Please procure MICHELIN PILOT HYDRO EDGE which has great looks and outstanding performance.
I assume your wheel is 16 inches so P225/60R-16 97T XSE would suit you better. The beauty of this particular tyre is that the tredwear index is 800 ! as opposed to 480 and below, for most tires. This tire is good for driving in wet conditions and hence the term "HYDRO EDGE".
The sidewall contains a special compound called "DURABLACK" to keep the tire looking sharp and black, much longer than most other tires.
The cost? $119 each .
oh err... I do not work for Michelin and or any tire outlets. I have these tires on my e23 and soon I'd discard the "other brand" on my e24 which has seen so many very Good Years ! and replace with Michelin HYDROEDGE P225/60R-16s.
Remember the TREADWEAR is 800 for these tires.
Regards and have a nice weekend
Sincerely
Kumar
