Ewww, they didn't do so hot on the TireRack.com ratings.
There are not many "rebranded" Michelin tires. They are expensive for a reason, not just the name. They usually have better tread compounds and designs, more and/or better plys, better beads, more complex sidewalls. Basically it is a more complicated tire to build and it is built to higher standards on top of that.
