I am at exactly the same decision point in replacing OE tires on my 1997 Honda Civic EX sedan, considering the Michelin MXV4 vs. Dunlop D60 A2. I cannot believe the ease of hydroplaning on the originals. My commute is 50 miles on winding mountain roads, so cornering is also my concern. Does anyone have comments on the noise factor (smooth and/or rough roads) with the Dunlops? The OE tire were not quiet to my ears, and the Dunlops have been noted to be noisy.
