if I remember right, mxv4 was rated pretty good, if not the best, by consumer report

I know there are some MXV4s floating around in the stock size, but by the time you get them installed, you may as well have looked for something slightly different.

Costco carries the Primacy MXM4 for almost the same price as getting MXV4 from local. That said, it is not the stock size. I went with 245-50-18. There is no rubbing. It is also a V-rated tire.

Some others on here have done the same. I think out the door was something like $1,100. Locally and/or with Tire Rack, the price out the door for MXV4 was $1,020...I opted to spend the extra $80 and get a V rated tire that I could rotate on an all-wheel EX.

Good luck...I'm happy with my choice.
