Good Points

Absolutely brilliant once they've 'bedded in'.


Bad Points

You have to scrub off the first 1mm of tread driving gently due to the blocks flexing.


General Comments

I have just worn out my first set of these Michelin Pilot Exacto Tyres and will be buying them again after trying others. I have had the Goodyear Eagles and Conti Sport Contact 2 fitted before and these beat them all ( the Goodyears were virtually unbeatable in the dry, or so I thought!!).
I fitted the Exalto's after using the Goodyars and finding them poor on cold days (apparently common) and the problem was solved! They perform very well in all temperatures and are incredibly grippy on wet roads, which is very handy as I'm based in Wales. The wear on them has been good and not uneven at all. The only gripe I've got with them is that they can start to 'grain' when driven hard before the first 1mm has worn off. Once they've bedded in (took about 1000 miles) they could take anything I chucked at them and never suprised me!
Strongly recommended for all weather if you like to drive enthusiastically!! Just shop around for the best price (usual for Michelin!).
