I need Tire to be recommanded.

My 2002 TL which is green needs new Tires.
I am considering about buying new ones.
But I am not sure which is best.
My car miliege is about 47500.
But I really do not like OEM tires which is Michelin Pilot HX MXM4.
Michelin is too slipy and too noisy...
when do you change your tires usually?
I want to know that about 50000 miles is normal?

Which one is the best you think?
Could recommand your experience for me?
Thanks~ ^:^;

If you live anywhere that snow is a factor, I HIGHLY recommend the Continental Exterme Contact, plus sized to 225/55/16. Traction is great in all weather conditions and the tire has lasted longer than ANY tire I have ever owned. I drive about 25k a year, mostly highway, averaging around 75-80 MPH. I've gotten about 50k miles out of them. I will need to replace them before next winter, but they have served me very well, and at about $80 each (Tirerack.com) for a V rated tire, even the price was unbelievable.

That's what I have. I put about 20K miles on them and they still look great. I didn't go with the plus size. I stuck with stock size. The traction in the snow is MUCH MUCH MUCH improved. I highly recommend them.
