<< Does the Energy MXV4 Plus
come in a touring tire?
>>

From Michelin's site:

<< Refinement to the utmost extent. This tire provides excellent responsiveness and superb wet traction thanks to a rounder profile, multi-function shoulder grooves, and industry-leading silica-based rubber compounds .

Excellent responsiveness and control
Extra all-season control
Extra long tread life
>>

The link to the MVX4+ is here.

Edit: To answer your question, yes the MVX4+ is a touring tire. It's rated at 50,000 miles.

Cool, but if we discuss it here, folks might learn something.
So, how do I knwo what tire size I am running?
I assume it is P225/60R15, but will either size fit?
Where do I look? on the current tires? the manual?

What do you nor mall recommend for a 5 series?
>>

It should be somewhere on the side of the tire. Placement varies by brand. Also, if you look on the side of the drivers door where the latch is, or the piller post opposite, there should be a sticker with the tire info on it...tire size, recommended air pressure, etc.

"Michelin is a French company. You really want to be supporting a bunch of cheese eating surrender monkeys?"

Holy sheet, I didn't know that! Those forkin' tires rock too! Damn, now what will I do? I don't mind paying extra for the quality of those tires. If I switch to another brand, it will be a roll of the dice. Is there honestly another tire with a better bang for the buck? I for damn sure, don't want to support a French product, but that is a GREAT product! :eek:
