I need to order new tires for 98'ES300. We are in SF Bay Area. It is my wife's car who is not an agressive driver at all. Her preferences in order are-
1) Great dry, and reasonably good Wet traction
2) Ride comfort and noise
3) Tread wear
4) Performance
Based on reviews @ tirerack, I've short listed the following tires-
AVON Tech M550 A/S 360AAA 28lbs @ $106
BFGoodrich Traction T/A H&V 440AAA 25lbs @ $117
Pirelli P Zero Nero M+S 400AAA 24lbs @ $131
Need your advise...
1) Great dry, and reasonably good Wet traction
2) Ride comfort and noise
3) Tread wear
4) Performance

OR...
The Falken Ziex ZE-512:

Those 2 before the others you mentioned as they are the best value available in your size & fit the bill to a tee with what you stated you are looking for in a tire for your wife.

Thanks for suggestions Lexusfreak.
I was looking at Falken's as well but the problem was not available @ tirerack. I found out that these are available @tires.com at good price with free shipping as well. I might go with these. Is that a good source to buy from?
