I have Michelin Pilot Sport All Season (AS) Plus on one set of wheels.... They're great. I have Goodyear Asymetricals on another wheel set. They wear too fast IMO and the sides are not as rigid as the Michelin PS, and they generate more noise.
It is time to replace the Goodyear due to wear and I "stretched" them onto a set of Mandrus wheels. Will likely replace them with Michelin PS.

Michelin Primacy here. I have been happy with them. I think I'll end up with about 20K miles of use on the rears, probably 40K on the fronts. This is compared to 10K front/20K rear with Pirelli P-Zeroes. But, both the Pirellis and the Michelins seem to be getting noisier and rougher as they get past the 50% life mark.
