Really? I had LTX's on my car for years, and they were awesome, no issues at all.

My newish Michelin Defenders did that.
I agree, i see more michelin tires with sidewalls cracking than other brands. Most of these tires have 50% tread left too and are usually pretty old 5+ years
I just replaced a set of dry-rotted, cracked Michelin's with tread that seemed nearly brand new. It really sucked to fail an inspection because of tires with so much tread left.
This is typical of a 4 year old Michelin though..
I had a set of Michelin hydroedge on my Mustang, they were awful. No traction in any condition, and dry-rotted similar to shown above, but not quite as bad. And only about 4 years old.
There were long sections of I-90 especially through Washington that were loud as f***. I don’t know if it’s damage due to chains or what, but I had to endure hours of this nonsense. Maybe it was my tires? They are Michelin Pilot Super Sports in 235/40R18 inflated up to 39 psi for the extra load. They’re silent on most other roads though.
I have NO issues with wet weather traction with the Michelin PSS on my GTI. Much better than the stock Pirelli all-season tires.
Also, to answer your question regarding the Michelin PSS - I made the switch from the stock all seasons over a year and a half ago...They absolutely transform the car. The stiffer sidewall increases steering feel and responsiveness, and the softer compound not only rides better but also grips like hell in the corners. Wet traction and confidence also increased significantly.
I've gotten Michelin Pilots fitted and can't go wrong, they're pretty decent tires.
