Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires? Anyone used them

I am shopping for tires for my g/f's Civic. Here is what I have come up with.

2009 Honda Civic Si Coupe
33xxx miles currently and the factory Michelin tires need to be replaced soon.

The car is driven daily in St. Louis where we get snow and wet weather. I cannot have an dry traction performance tire lol (even though Id love it)

I need a tire that's good all weather and will last at least another 35K miles. I think I have decided on the Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires. What do you think? They sound like pretty bad ass tires. Here is a tire rack link to them, I have already PM'ed Damon about them. Any additional comments would be great!

My boss swears by Primacy's on his Suburban. You might also want to look at Continental DWS's which are awesome tires and might be a bit cheaper if you can find them.

In the tests I have read, the Cont's were a little lower rated, for a similar price, I'll opt for the Mich. tires. However, I don't think either is a bad choice

I run Kuhmo ASX's on my 91 C4 and have never been let down in the snow. They are not the highest performance tire, but they have taken me thru 17" snow fall nights and to work the next morning everytime. Good in wet too. The sidewall is a bit soft... and you will notice it at first. I have but two sets on the C4 and have avg'd about 40,000 miles per set.
