After the P6000, I tried Sumitomo HTR+ due lower price. These wore out after 16K miles. Very disappointing as I commute 85 miles/day with 85% highway. I now have Michelin Pilot All Seasons and I went up a size to 225/45/17. These seem to be wearing much better (9-10K miles) and they are tremendous in the wet weather. Only issue I have with them is a percieved sluggishness during cornering but I do not really know if this is the tire or the size increase. I just changed pressures from 38F& 34R to 36F & 33R. This is a noticably better ride and handling. I hope to get 30K miles from these. If not, I may try Bridgestone 750s which I believe are there newest All-Season type. I may even go down to a V-rated tire for the mileage.
