What is your collective wisdom - should I stick to the Pirellis or reshoe in the Michelins?

BTW I love the car - the poise and drive are exceptional, the interior gorgeous and the tech just so useable. Being an unusual combo it does seem to attract attention!

Here's an interesting read for you. These results couldn't be more lopsided between your two choices...

Michelin is ranked first in the segment, while Pirelli is ranked last.
