Continental CrossContact LX20 vs. Michelin LTX MS/2

Anyone here had any experience with these tires or have thoughts/recommendations? My tires are at 4/32 and I'm going to replace them with one of these. I've read that the Michelin LTX's are more durable, but that the Continental LX20s might perform slightly better in the rain. I'm most concerned with driving on wet/snowy freeways. Thanks.

Buy the LTX.
The best tyre I ever used all round.
Very very stable also on wet.

Very happy with my LTX MS2's --worthy successor to the Cross-Terrains I ran for 70k. I love Michelin.

My LTX M/S2's are great tires, perfect all year tire.
Wet weather grip is great (only spins if i mash it while making a corner) and it stays planted on corners in the rain. In the snow they are good, not as good a a true winter tire, but they work well. In the dry they handle fantastic for a big heavy truck and are predictable... (1999 4runner limited 4x4)

I currently have the Michelin AT2s and they are a great tire, but the LTX M/S beat them in longevity and on wet traction. That's what I had before I got the ATs, on a Bronco II, an Explorer and on the 96 4Runner. Its the only highway tire I'll run on a truck or suv.
