The XW4 was (still is) a good original equipment, all around tire. For a priceless gem like a 560 SEC (I have a C-36), you should run new MXV4, Energy's. They are a new generation with silica in the tread compound, giving superior snow and wet traction , while maintaining wear and actually improving rolling resistance. Quiet too on a Legend Coupe that I owned.Doug. (I help build them)
