New Michelin PS2s

Replaced the factory Conti's yesterday with PS2's and the difference is quite noticable. Much, much less road noise and my Conti's weren't even down to the wear bars yet. I'm very disapointed in the factory Conti's. Noisy as hell, ride terrible and I got less than 10K out of them.

What do you guys think about Bridgestones? I use them on the SL and also had a set of Serenities on the M-Pars on my old bimmer. I loved the soft ride...they would just soak up bumps and were quiet too. They don't handle as well as PS2's, but I thought it was worth the tradeoff.

That's not many miles. Did you ride 'em hard and put 'em up wet? Just wondering what to expect with mine 7 ticks on the clock.

I got about 6,000 miles out of my Conti rears before I switched to PS2's. They may have had another 1 or 2 thousand miles left. But not much more.
