Yes, I got a set of 225/40/18R on front & 255/40/18R on the back. When I bought them, there was a $50 rebate promotion going on, so I "only" paid $600 for all 4. Check discounttiredirect - I know they have some deals going on.
The thing that I faced was that not all manufacturers make tires for the IS since we need 225 on front & 255 on back. I was really after Neogens, but couldn't find the size to match. V12's were the only ones of my preferred brands to have a matching pair for the rear.

It's nice to see my posts here few months back

Well Tire Central quoted me $570 out the door for all 4 installed. I might take them up on their offer. Thanks

Now I need to find some sick 18" rims.
