Need Tires. any suggestions?

I have 90k on the Michelin LTX M/S, excellent excellent tires. Now need new set. If odo isnt 137k, would definitely get another set of LTX. Now, may want to try out the general grabber HTS. How does
the riding noise compare to the LTX M/S?

Well, thru trial and error I've learned three things.
Don't buy cheap house paint.
Don't buy cheap razor blades.
Don't buy cheap tires.
I have Michelins on all my vehicles. The RX is on it's 2nd set of tires @ 151k.
I was going to replace the Cross Terrains next year just on general principle as they will have about 90k. Sorry to hear they are discontinued.
Guess I will go with LTX M/S that is on my truck and just turn the whiteside in.

Had Michelin Cross Terrains... then picked up a piece of steel... Bought Michelin LTX M/S because they were on special at Sam's. They're OK, but have a little more road noise than the Cross Terrains. Gas mileage went down ~10% too. Wish I had spent the extra dough to get the new version of Cross Terrains... called Latitude, I think.

Got the Yoko Geolander A/T-S during Discount Tire's Black Friday Sale. Went through second pair of the OEM Goodyear Intergrity in less than 40k miles.
Handling is so much better in the Yoko's and driving through wet pavement was an afterthought. The tread pattern looks very rugged but road noise on the highway was actually much quieter than the Goodyears.
