I'm up for new tires (live in FL) - and the v12 price is tough to beat - I don't track.
For the STREET - for potenza’s I’ve had RE050 (base 350z 17in size on a 240sx), RE11 and RE71R, my experience is always nice and smooth when brand new, but noise and harshness substantially increased once the initial layer is worn off. I don’t have any quantitative measurements to provide, however.

I also had V12, same size as the RE050, same 240sx, street ride quality was much more consistent throughout its life.
