I've not driven on the Michelins, but comments tend to run in the direction that they are at their best in the dry, somewhat disadvantaged in the wet (relative to other hi-po tires). I've had Contis on my 228 (runflats) and my last car (non-RF) and they were great in the wet. There is a spot on my commute where they neglected to drain just a short stretch of highway (because close is apparently good enough around here) and it routinely has about 0.5-1 inch of standing water in a rain - not a problem at highway speeds. The nonRFTs also wore like iron for a performance tire - 3.5 seasons on them when I traded it in, and still not to the 'dry-only' wear bars.
