Well, I too am in the market and really need to shop for a new set of four. I am looking at the difference in sizes and especially
price. I think I am more limited because of the 18" rims vs. 17". Does anybody make a tire that will fit the factory 18" rims besides Michelin? Don't get me wrong, I am happy with the tires and will probably replace them with the same (expensive) Pilot Sports. Definitely don't want to sacrifice safety. As an employee of one of the companies making a lot of news these days, I need to keep track of the pennies just in case. Definitely want to stay with a grippy, Z-rated tire. And yes, I have used the "search" keys for this site for prior research!
Love to hear a few other opinions - thanks in advance.
Chris
