Trounce is a strong word lol. Continental manufactures the ECS in quite a few European countries, depending on sizes. Michelin is US and France. Maybe it's a concern for some.
At $248 for a 285/35/19, and weighing 27lbs, the ECS's are a steal in comparison.
The Michelin's for the same size are $85 more.
Their 265/35/19 is $270 vs $248 and 305's are $366 compared to $287.
Even if the PS4's do rate higher (no direct comparison yet), the expected results are so close to one another that, the only other metric is price and tread design. As an every day summer tire, it's hard to go wrong with either one.
