Well, was going to go with the Michelin A/S but would have had to wait some time due to back order on the rears.
After some discussion with wheel/tire dealer I agreed upon the TOYO Proxes T1R

Will see how they compare to the Bridgestone RF's that were put on my car 2000miles ago (replaced the Dunlop under warranty)

Initial impression during the run-in period (just got them Saturday) is that they ride softer at lower speed. Also has a rib on the sidewall (not shown in the pic below) to help protect the rim from curbing. Wear rating is 280 which is hopefully just right to last the next 2 years at my driving style.

Will post pics later when I get chance but for now here is official photo.....
