It is getting to be time to replace the OE Michelin Pilots at about 37k
miles.

I've looked through tire rack reviews and other sources and needless to
say, there is much conflicting information out there.

Any replacement TSX tires you love or hate?

Road noise is a weak spot of the TSX and I certainly don't want to make
it any worse.   Traction wise the Michelines seemed great when the car
was new, but even though I'm not quite down to the wear bars these tires
are obviously a lot less grippy than when they were new.

Bridgestone has some tires with two layer treads which supposed expose a
softer compound as the tire wears to compensating for aging effects.
Any feedback on how that works?
