Do lots of research + collect opinions + decide on where your driving style and budget intersect. IMHO the reviews on TireRack are worth reading to help you get opinions but check out the BMW/Mercedes/Audi reviews as those drivers may be more in tune with their cars. And it's also a good place to get price comparisons before you decide where to buy.

That said, there are other on-line and brick and mortar stores to consider depending on your local shopping preferences.

I have used BFG tires in the past ... decent rubber overall. Don't know what drivers are saying about the particular model you are referring to.

Good luck with your shopping - if you decide to buy on-line check out the link in my signature.

Interesting marketing piece ... wonder who did the QA on the report. Page 3 chart where they spelled "Thrid Generation" ... OH WELL, they are a tire company aren't they!!

Maybe it was an engineer who wrote the paper after he/she was fired!
