Anyone else running Michelin CrossTerrain SUV's?

The Discount Tire folks told me this was the only tire they had in the city that was a good size replacement.. since I was heading for the mountains in a few days, I went ahead with them. They're softer - a little more bouncy on my SE, but I've already adjusted to it and forgotten.
So far I'm really really happy with how they deal with wet roads compared to the GY's new, and especially when compared to the GY's near to the wear bars. I hit some deep water on the freeway during a heavy rain on Friday.. I was expecting the steering wheel to get light and squirrelly like with the GY's, but it was rock solid reassuring me there was firm road contact.
They're monsters at 275/55SR18.. the wider footprint and semi-aggressive looking tread at the edge is (in my opinion) a nice look for the MO.
