So, finally killed the Pilots, went with the M3. Gotta say, SWEET tire. Much more neutral steering less "tip" from the front. Probably the most notable thing is the tracking. The front will ride over anything, as opposed the the Pilot. Grooved pavement, the Pilot wandered. The M3 tracks perfectly. So far, good to go. Seems there is a TON of tread on this thing as well. More updates as the time goes. So far, really liking this tire.

I ordered a set, and will check 'em out soon. Hopefully,I'll get 4000+ out of a rear opposed to the 3-3500 from the M1.
