I think those X series tires they sell at Sams are geared more towards commercial applications. I would expect that they are designed with more durability in mind rather than ride and comfort. But, because they're michelin's they're probably better than most other brands.

I just replaced contis with Michelin LTX---slightly different size---what a difference---love them. I bought them locally---Sam's did not sell them---I think Tire Rack does though---not sure

I might have to do that. You can order them online through Sam's but who knows how long that would take. I checked tire rack and they have them in stock. Has anyone ordered from tire rack and what about the road hazard warranty? Seems it would be difficult to file a claim...

TireRack is great.
I've ordered several sets of tires for different vehicles over the years without one problem.
They usually arrive by Fedex within 2 days

The cheapest I found them for was at Costco. They can pretty much get whatever you want - although they did have the LTX in stock.

I found the same thing. I ordered my 2nd set of LTX's from Costco's website, and they were delivered to my local Costco, where I had them installed. I got 90K miles on my 1st set of LTX's, and the tread was still above the wear bars.
