From my experience of Michelin tyres on cars they tend to sacrifice grip for long wear, I had Michelin on cars for many years, mainly because i was doing over 25,000 miles a year, but fitting Avon ZV7 has all but made the ABS redundant and where pulling away normally at some junctions could provoke wheelspin on Michelin, not so with Avons.

Unless Michelin use a different 'magic' rubber compound in bike tyres to get the holy grail of both amazing grip and make tyres last longer ( then why not use it on car tyres ) after my experience with their car tyres I would not fit them to a bike ( ducks ).
