I recently replaced my tires and was surprised at how much everyone wanted for 17" Z-rated tires. Prices averaged 800-900 for a new set.... I ended up getting a set of Tiger Paw GTZ all season tires. They are actually stickier than the Pirelli P-Zero's that were originally on the car. Whether or not they last a long time, I cannot vouch for, as I only drive 3000-4000 miles per year. The only reason I replaced the original Pirelli's on my '06 was because they were starting to crack from age, not because of wear. =)
