Default Yokohama Avid Ascend tires for 2009 Accord?

My dealer just replaced my tires for my 2009 Accord with Yokohama Avid Ascend 225/50 R17s.

My older tires were Michelins, and besides tread wear had cracking in the surface of the rubber. The service guy said the Yokohamas might be a bit more resistant to road salt induced surface cracking.

I'd like to know if anyone has had these tires before and how they are compared to Michelins? I've never had the brand, and the Dealer said they used several different types and the Yokohamas just came up in the rotation for me. He said they were better than the Michelins, so I am posting here to check if anyone has some experience that matches the prediction
