Arrow Super Low rolling resistance tires

I am using Michellin OEM tires and have been very happy with them. Very quiet, nice ride and little wear after almost 24,000 miles.

I keep the air pressure between 38.5 and 40 psig.

Is anyone aware of anything better on the market for low rolling resistance? I would like to further improve my mileage.

What model of Michelin tire is factory on the TCH? I'm not happy with the factory Dunlops on my Honda and want something better...

My 2007 TCH has Michelin MXVS LRR tires and i am very happy with them. I have not had any problems and keep the pressure around 40psi as well. The Michelins are probably the best tire for the money........in my opinion.

My 2007 TCH came with Michelin MXV4 Energy S8 tires. These are suppose to be the highest LRR Tires ever made for passenger cars.

I think Michelin had some complaints about the MXV4 Energy S8 tire. Something about the wet traction not being equal to others in it's class. That may be why they came out with the new MXV4 Primacy tire. It's lower on LRR but has lots longer tread life. Both tires reviews from Tire Rack show to ride smooth and quiet.
