I have falken 452s in the rear - Had Ventus v4's from previous owner

Don't know how the Michelins drive like, but the falkens aren't bad for the price. I put a ton of miles on my car and like to use my rear tires often if you know what I mean

Haha goodluck!

PSS = Michelin Pilot Super Sports (one of the more popular tires for the Z).

I like my Nitto Invos for their performance in the rain

I believe I paid $156 a tire from Discount for the Falkens for 275s.
The front's (Pirelli's P Zero) cost $30 more a tire and are only 245s.

I'm not saying they are a GREAT tire, since I dont have much tire experience. But they are definitely worth the price for the grip. And i don't really hear them, so that is also a plus.

Unless your alignment is off, you must be roasting the $hit out of your tires to only get 4K miles out of the PSS. My recommendation is don't waste your money on PSS if you're going to continue to do that.

Nankangs are pretty cheap and really crappy
