As a Brand I Have Only Had Experience with Michelin & Pirelli. I Had Good Experience's with Them! I Will Defer to Our Posters with Direct Experience for Better Real World Advice!
Have you looked at Continentals, that is what I am running and they turn real nice and have made a few cars and their drivers look a little off.

Also take Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 into consideration as well... They're right up there along with Michelin and Continental, but at half the cost... I've been running them on my car for several years now and couldn't be happier.
Michelin man here will never buy Pirelli's ever again!
Cool,
Me & Mr Bibendum Have the Same Build!
Oh and on A Side Note After 20 Years of Using Goodyear Eagle GTII's The Oem Tire on my 02 Harley F-150 Supercharged I Went To Firestone Destination Le 2's Wanted an Updated Tire! 6 Sets Of Good Years at 130K Miles of Driving! A Bit Much Don't You Think!

Unfortunately good performance tires yield low mileage.
And those 275/55 20 tires were not really that wide, reason I have 305/50 20 on my 411 Horse Powered F150
Actually 275/45/20 's But They are The Same Width as 275/55/20. 10.8 vs 12 Width. She Seldom Drives Anymore. I Behave a Lot More These Days as Well!
On the Other Hand Your Tire is a Lot taller. If I Made the Switch to that Size it Would Take My 3.73 Gears and Effectively Change Them to 3.47. Actually Might Not Be a Bad Thing With gas Prices These Days! Oh Well The Firestones Will Dry Rot Before I Get Enough Miles to Need another set Now! Or Me!

Forgot we were still running 30 inch tires on the 10th Gen and not 32 inch like they are now.

IT'S COOL NO BIG WHEEL! Never Heard the 10th Gen Reference! This Old Dog is Still Learning! In Analog Fashion Though! It's Funny Buying Something Brand New and Still Having it When it Becomes a Classic! Aye Carumba!
