I have the Michelin Pilot Sport AS/3 (all season) - best in class... they're amazing
and given that it's been below freezing the past 8 days, I'm glad I'm not running the PSS

I have had Toyo's, Nittos and considered them both to be outstanding. Recently installed Yokohama Advan P105's and these are even better - - - stickier than the Toyos. How well will they wear, I do not know yet.
One thing I have always found with Japanese tire manufactures is that their tires are always perfectly round. More times than not, I have had to have other brands of tires trued. So, I simply stay with the Japanese brands. Oh, and I have Bridgstone Duelers on the ML350BT and Yokohamas on the ML400CDI

I like nito 555`s on front and invos or nto5 on the back. Good price, since I burn them off quick and decent traction. Invos last a longer than the nt05`s but nt05`s hook better. I used to run mid 11`s using invos 5 years ago , when I only had a pulley/tune/cooling on the car back then.

Michelin Super Sports, although they break lose anyways, smooth quiet ride, good in rain. Car is stored in the cold so would not recommend cold weather, too hard when cold.
Just to clarify, no drag racing or track days, just normal driving, Michelin all the way!
