I took off the GY RFlats ..............shopped around , Tire Rack, Disc tire, walamrt, etc. Went to my local Firestone dealer also, ended up with Generals G Max. Good reviews,,,,, and a great price on line. Ride and handle great...and way less road noise. BTW 03 A E vert with39K on the clock, The only issuse are the TPMS sensors , i thought if the old one were working it was okay. WRONG! ordered a new set on Amazon, can't get the damn things to learn, so ordered another set . Manufacture said were pre-programed , Ok went back to my install dealer , they stated they couldn't relearn them, just the ones they sell . So back to square 1 , I have to contact manufacture and ask them for a name and phone number near my town to install.
So my word to the wise change out the old TPMS with brand that is in your tire, and check with installer before tire break down , save some $$$$
Just my .02 worth

FWIW, knowing that, I checked with a local tire distributor a couple of months ago, who said that he had some of these Michelins in his warehouse. He told me that their production date was December of 2019, which made them a little over 1 year old. Faced with either buying 1 year old tires, then stashing them for a year or so, or not being able to buy RFs in the future, at all, I chose to buy them....
