... and dealer has offered the Michelin Pilot Sport AS instead of the Pilot Sport. The AS is an All Season tire compound while the straight Pilot Sport is summer only. I run winter tires so the AS is not required for me. What I like is the 400 treadwear of the AS.

Can anyone comment on the Pilot Sport AS compared to the non AS. I don't want to give up any performance. Would I be better off keeping my stock size Pilot Sports over the +0 Pilot Sport AS or should I wait for the +0 Pilot Sports.

I think my next tire will be Dunlop SP9000 in 225/50R16 (or who knows, I might get 17" rims).

Thanks,
Kirk

You'll really need to make a decision between 400 tread life and not wanting to give up any performance. Can't have both.....
