2004 E320 Tires

I recently purchased a pre-owned 2004 E320 with 52k miles. The tires are Continental Contitouring Contacts. I don't like them compared to Michelins that I had on my 92 300E. My independent shop highly recommended Michelin
MXV4 Plus. The Continentals are noisy and I have one with a possible flat spot which adds to the rhythmic rumbling sound. I hate to dump the tires since they have about 60% of the tread remaining. Are there any comments positive/negatives regarding the Michelins??

Michelin is the way to go. They are more expensive as you know but in my opinion are worth every cent. I have recently tried to save some money by getting good year eagle gt for my car and that was the biggest mistake I did. My ride is extremely harsh right now.

I had brigdestone 960 pole position and was happy with them.
