Michelin Pilot Road 2

Has anyone tried the Michelin Pilot Road 2? The manufacture is claiming, "The ideal balance Independent tests confirm the Pilot Road 2 offers better wet grip and longer tread life than any of its competitors." I have used the standard Pilot Road and been quite pleased with performance and longevity. I am wondering if Pilot Road 2 offers signficantly greater life or performance?

RE: Michelin Pilot Road 2

I can't speak to the life of the tire yet (I got about 2000 miles out of a
set of Pilot Powers) but I like the performance of the tire. And they ain't
cheap.

Re: Michelin Pilot Road 2

Most people are raving about the tire... see the thread here:

http://www.fjrforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=24636

One guy had strange wear on the front, but overall is seem the tire gets
very good mileage and traction.

I have the front only and so far it's quite nice, but I don't have much to
compare it to.
