Michelin MTX M/S. Good agressive tread, quiet, excellent traction, load rated, and should last at least 60K miles, probably longer with good care.

I have Michelin LTX's on my truck, they are realy good highway tires. I have 70K on them and they still ride smooth as glass with plenty of tread left. Got them mounted and balanced with warranties at Sam's Club for under $500.
I normally have them balanced every 5-7K, but they are riding extremely smooth so I haven't had them balanced for 20-30K. If it's not broke don't fix it. One thing I noticed after having the tires balanced is the weights required to balance the tires were realy small, like 1/2 ounce. Looks like the tires are in near perfect balance from the factory.

Just replaced the LTX/MS tires on my caravan.75000 miles and still looked good. Got them from tire rack and got a $50 rebate from michelin. They don't make my size in a Load range C yet or I'd replace my OEM's now. 245/75/16r.
