    The wife is taking the car back to ATS today to ask them to re-do the wheel balancing.

    I assume you didn't see the invoice then!
    Michelin are a premium brand and will last much longer than say the Pirelli or Continental
    The downside is they are a hard tyre

    If they give you a choice, then consider the Dunlop SP Sport Maxx
    I am now on my second test of these
    Although cheaper, they are softer, sadly don't last as long
