Hi,
My XC90 had Toyos when I bought it, seemed to follow tramline and road undulations a lot, they felt very hard and lacked feel once they got a bit low on tread.

Replaced them with Michelin Eco Sport 3 and they suited the car really well, even when at lower tread depth. Had a couple of sets of Michelins then last time went for Bridgestones due to a good price deal, they do not feel as good and squeal a lot on turns, (Dukes of hazard style at 15 mph).

Going back to the Michelins this month.

Hope that helps.
