I priced the same size Yokohama tires, the YK580, for $163 front and $194 rear. Will I notice a huge difference? At this point I don't see I have much choice. Thanks for any advice.
You can look on here and see if anyone is selling a set or you could go with a less expensive tire. The Ventus V12's are a popular choice and relatively inexpensive. 19k miles is actually pretty good for high performance summer tires and yes its normal. The YK580 is an all-season tire, so you will notice a bit of a difference. For normal daily driving though, you might not.
