    Any thoughts on these lads? Is anyone running them? They are supposed to be fantastic all rounders that have amazing wet grip. I am thinking of buying, but not before I am convinced that I am not buying into hype..

    Here is what they look like-

    Probably a fine tyre.

    But the Michelin Cross Climate IMO is better suited to the Irish climate.

    Directional tyres are probably better for out and out performance (guessing/gut feeling here really) but... they do make it more tricky to even out wear across a set of tyres.

    You can only swap them front to back, rather than side to side or diagonally.
    You have a 50/50 chance of your spare facing the "wrong way" if your spare is directional. No big deal unless it's bucketing it down I suppose.


    This is purely my own intuition on these things - if someone has facts that contradict these opinions i'll quite happily take them on board :-)
