Who runs Michelin primacy or Michelin Pilot Exalto

[Carl winslow]

I,m looking for a set of all seasons,on my daily 325 size 225/45/17 with sport suspension and the Michelin primacy and Michelin Pilot Exalto rate pretty high Tire Rack,I read the reviews but wanted to know from a 325 owners perspective running sports suspension and 17' sizes

I,m running Michelin pilot a/s now and will sacrifice ultimate handling for a livable all season tire with great mileage that can handle a little snow.

Question who is, running these on a 325,do you like them? do they corner or feel really sloppy.
Are they a huge trade down from Michelin Pilot as in handling/performance?
I,m prepared to trade a bit,although squishy handling will make me think twice.
I,m thinking a 225/45/17 is a pretty low profile so squirm may not the issue as it would be on a taller tire,anyhow looking to pull the trigger in the next week so let me know.
Oh yes,as always I will report back on my findings when I buy so everyone else can use the data,thanks.

Don't you have the Michelin Pilot Exalto 2 available on the US market ?

It is far better than the first Exalto (which is no longer available in France for three years now).
