You're right...the Pilot Super Sports are pretty much the top of the line, but the S-04's run a very close second for about 30% less for the set ($800 vs $1200 at Tire Rack). My son's a Chevy service tech...he'll mount and balance them for free. All I need is four jackstands. Tires will be delivered Monday.

The OEM tires come out at the bottom of this list, although they're the most expensive tires on it....

I just need to find a buyer for my OEM tires with 4 miles on them...

I've had my S04s for almost a year now - they're great tires, way better than the stock RE050A tires (especially in the rain)!
