Kid, you live in California. Why do you keep looking at A/S tires? You have a Z, put summer tires on it. It doesn't get that cold, even up in San Jose. You can get the Potenza RE-11's cheaper than the OEM RE050A's from Tirerack. That's what I run. Get them shipped to your house and take them to Discount Tire and have them installed. Pull some cash out of your savings if you have to, but do it right. And be happy they aren't Pirelli P Zeros that run me $500/piece.
Now stop asking and just go do it correctly.

You're right, I thought about this too much. I see on the website the wheels for 198 each and think ill grab of the POTENZA RE760 SPORT for the rear. This will make all 4 tires the summer tires and I think it should be good to go?

In the first place, I thought about switching over to all season tires because I thought those tires provide less road noise, but w.e I think this option is best.

Thanks.
