I just installed Michelin Latitudes. I previously had Toyo Proxes. The Toyos were fine initially. However, the noise increased as the tire wore. It was unbearable after about 15 - 20K miles. I am very happy with my replacements. The Lats are very smooth. No road noise at all. I did some research and found out that the Toyos makes noise because they have no center thread. Good luck.

What ever you get, just be sure to "rotate" them by dismounting them and swapping them side to side after around 10-15k miles. You'll essentially double the life of your tires for the cost of re-mounting them.

Are you still looking for Michelins? Did you try Advans? Advans have great reviews.

As R8DX5 mentioned Toyos get noisy with age. If that does not bother you, you should be fine. Personally I prefer specialized summer performance tires at 20" and above sizes. Enjoy the wheels to max.
