Michelin Hydroedge - great wet traction, quiet, 80,000 miles, but $$$.

I started looking at the Hydroedge and found they didn't come in the low profile or speed rating for the tC. Then I read the recent Consumer Reports on tires where the Hydroedge is rated "mediocre" for resistance to hydroplaning. A quick visit to michelinman.com gives the message "Sorry, there are no tires to match your vehicle."

not that many choices in this size. The Pirelli PZero nero got a lot of good press, but I'm not sure if they are still available.

Great review for a great car. I've had mine for 1 yr nad 19000 miles and can ditto your experience and observations.
 
As for the discussion on tires. I too looked to replace the Bridgestones immediately but the expense lead me to give them a try. While I am not a Bridgestone fan (Duelers wore out at 35k and were worthless in snow on an RX300) I must admit I have been pleasantly surprised with these Potenzas. I would not buy them as replacements, but they have been adequate thru a Michigan winter. Time will tell how they wear. I expected worse.

tC Service by weav727

I just had my tC in for the 15000 mile service...does the tC need new spark plugs at 15000 miles? I though that sounded ludicrous. I ended up paying over one hundred dollars for an oil change, tire rotation, "visual inspection" of various items, and an air filter. I don't know, that seems really steep to me.
