Default Baby's gettin' new shoes

My '06 GT 'Vert is getting a new set of Michelin AS3+ tires, replacing the Nittos that I have been driving on for 3 seasons or so. The Nittos were decent tires, but not in the same league with Michelins. Can't wait to get them on.
Reviews will follow after I drive on them for a bit.

I also have an '06 GT convertible and put the same tires on last week, replacing the original (!) Goodriches (car has 28k original on it). Big difference. Car always wandered a bit, now tracks straight as an arrow. I've only driven it about 50 miles with these tires thus far. Will be interested to hear your observations.

Thumbs up New shoes

I have only driven a handful of miles on the new Michelins, but so far they feel great. Very quiet. Car drives smooth and solid. Takes curves like it's on rails. I'll report back after I get a couple of hundred miles on them. Very pleased.

I recently put some GoodYear Eagle's on my 06 GT and I really like them too. They seem to stick to the road, even in the wet. Glad the Michelins work good though!
