Just my input, I switched the the CC2 within 100 miles on the run flats on the 350h Lux 20in wheels. I am getting 42-44 MPG during warm weather fairly consistently. Tire pressure is 36 front, 35 rear. As noted, they are a lot quieter than one would think with the directional treads. Would buy again.

I have always been a Michelin fan. Have a set of Primacy MXV4 on my 17 ES350, a set of Latitude Tour on my son's 08 RX350.
As soon as my wife' 24 350h RFs wears out, I am going with, guess what, Michelins again. 235-60-18, probably a set of Defender 2 or Premier AS. We are in the SF Bay area, quite mild climate here and the SUV is only driven 8K miles a year max.......

We are Michelin fan as well. Too bad Michelin didn't come out with more tires for the NX.

Interesting. I customer reviews on the OEM Bridgestone RFT aren't that good overall.

Yes fuel economy still very good on Bridgestone RFT but ride comfort not at its best

I'm always have used Michelins in the past but I'm not sure if I will get Bridgestone RFT in the future. Finding RFT replacements are hard to find and expensive also. I'm getting 37-38 MPG in our area only with the Bridgestone RFT Alenza A/S. Not sure what other people are getting for MPG. Sidewalls are very firm so body roll is very minimal though.

I like the Primacy too. Had them on the ES300h

Yep, as I mentioned above I’m getting 1 - 2 mpg less with the CC2 vs the stock Bridgestone RFT, but the ride quality is a huge improvement in every way.
