Back in the day I got my new wheels, there weren't many choices available in the 19/20" sizes I needed.

I ended up choosing the Pirelli Pzero, which reviews said it was a decent tire, the only complaint people had with them is that they wore very quickly, and expect to be replacing them every 10k miles or so.

Ironically, the 275/30/19 fronts lasted over 50k miles. The rears, well, on my 3rd set of those , but still original set of fronts.

At least now I'm at the point where all 4 need replacing, and I can finally switch to something different. The Michelins and Pirellis are just so ridiculously overpriced, and I know full well I'm not gonna stick any street tire to the pavement with 20" wheels...So I'm gonna go cheap this time around and see what happens. Thinking either the Hankook V12, Toyo T1-R, or General UHP. All of which people seem to really like...and less than a $grand for all 4, I can live with that.
