Yes, Bridgestone Turanza, brain freeze, must have been dreaming i had Michellins...The M340 I test drove had the Pirelli P7s, I looked into those and they seemed average at best so i when I received my M340 and saw the Bridgestones I was cautiously optimistic they were better than the Pirelli, but based on what I've read they're worse.
Joke tires for this type of car actually, so disappointing...

I really want to know the thought process involved in making these decisions. I can understand the liability concerns of putting summer tires on a x-drive vehicle but there are MUCH better all season options available. Rwd vehicles need to come with stickier rubber standard. Heck even give me an all season performance tire such as the A/S 3+. To add insult to injury, the horrible standard pirelli's wore out quicker than Michelin pilot summer tires would have.
My friend's Kia Forte GT came with Michelin PS4's.
