Default Pirelli Verde All Season Plus vs Michelin Premier LTX

My 2016 XC90 is in need of new tires (275/45/R20 110V) at 35,000 miles. Looking at my local warehouse clubs (my preferred option given lower costs and better warranty & maintenance plan), I am considering these two options -

1) Pirelli Scorpion Verde A/S Plus - 275/45R20/XL 110V Tire - These are probably identical to the ones that came from the factory. I don't have much complaints other than the fact that they lasted only 35K miles but going through the forums that seems pretty standard

2) Michelin Premier LTX - 275/45R20 110V Tire - I have heard good things about Michelin and am wondering if they are a better option than Pirelli?

Any idea / suggestions / tips? Any feedback is welcome.

P.S: I just have my rear brake pads and rotors changed as well.

Michelin
- Sustainability-focused
- More consumer-oriented 'everyday' tires
- Higher base-prices for performance range
- More run-flat options, generally

Pirelli
- Wide variety of performance tires
- Somewhat limited 'everyday' range
- Cheaper entry-level performance tires
- Cheaper range of base-level tires
