I've got a 2006 with 17" Michelin Latitude, and I purchased them because at the time they were considered an "ECO" tire on the reviews I read in 2011. A trade off was that I was going to lose some traction in snow/rain, but considering I live in the desert in So. CA, so I wasn't too worried about that.
But what I realized was the "ECO" blend is as a side benefit a quieter tire.
