Tire Question

It's apparent the OEM Bridgestones are not a very good handling tire...they are always scratching and grabbing to stay on the road while engaging in spirited driving. I know a lot of you gentlemen like the Michelin Pilot Sports. Is it the XGT X4 or Z4, and are they all season? Lastly, those that do have these tires, did you purchse 225's or 235's and do they dramatically change the handing of car? Appreciate the input, thanks.

Do a search and you'll find a bunch of posts on this topic. I just put on Pilot Sport AS's (All-Season) in 225/50 ZR17 and like them very much. They're a little louder on the highway but the trade for handling in wet / snow / dry is worth it to me.
