Hi,
I have been told that Michelin MXF tyres are one of the best - low noise level and comfort... Has anyone used them?
How they are to compare to Bridgestone Re92?
Thanks

I haven't heard of the Michelin's that you mentioned, but I am running Michelin MXV4's 215/55/R16. They are Vrated and are really great tires. I put them on after my stock Toyos and I noticed a huge improvement in performance, braking, etc.

I never heard about Michelin MXF either. I know Michelin Pilot XGT H4 is wonderful. Corners very well. Don't get me wrong, the MXV is also good tire but it's geared more toward luxury car so it emphasis more into quite ride and good milleage. The XGT is more for performance than MXV yet it's cheaper for the same size of tire. For better speed rating there is also XGT v4 and Z4 but they are pricy.

RE92

from bridgestone aren't all that great. I had them in my old camry and it was a bit soft on the sidewall for some hard cornering--and I didn't think that the grip of the tire was that amazing either.
I bought the firestones not too long ago--what a big mistake that was, but if you want bridgestones--get the re930--they are better dry and wet than the 92's and cost less.

As for the michelins--I heard that the new xgt h4 pilots are a lot better than the previous xgt h4s--from the redesign...
