Michelin Harmony tires?
I'm considering these tires for my 1992 Accord EX but I wanted to see if anyone else has tried them?
I already have dedicated winter tires (Toyo Observe G-02 plus) so these will only be used for the nicer part of the year.
195/60/15 for my OEM Honda rims.
Thanks,
Zak

Re: Michelin Harmony tires?
The Michelin Harmony is an all-season tire and is not a performance tire; in fact, the Tire Rack places it in its lowest performance category for all-seasons.
All-season tires are designed to be used in snow and bitter cold in the winter as well as in moderate to warm temperatures the rest of the year. In exchange for that wide flexibility of temperatures, it does not perform as well in moderate to warm temperatures as summer tires (and doesn't perform as well in snow and bitter cold as winter tires).
If you're looking for the best performance from your tires, since you already have winter tires and you don't need to use these in winter conditions, you should get summer tires. The Yokohama ES100 is available in 195/60-15 and is a very good summer tire.
If you want to go with all-seasons anyway, there are many all-seasons that offer higher performance than the Michelin Harmony. In 195/60-15, they include the Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position, Goodyear Eagle GT, and Kumho Ecsta ASX.
