Way back Michelin X tyres were loved by taxi drivers so silly me decided to buy a set for my sedan and after having removed worn Dunlop aquajet tyres i came unstuck at a slower speed in the same corner than the worn Dunlops which had a easy slow break away loss of grip. The grip level in the same corner on Michelins went away faster than turning on a light switch and it took experience to know when that was about to happen as there was absolutely no warning as to when or which end was about to let go .
