I think I have three options:

2. Buy two new Toyo Proxes T1-R at a cost of $274.
3. Buy four new Sumitomo HTR Z II at a cost of $308. (Tire Rack)

HI I know you said you put the Proxes T1-Rs on the rear but you REALLY dont want these on the front. It's funny that I have the exact opposite of you on my 02. The ES1000 on the back are super sticky but OH SO LOUD! Having the Proxes on the front are like driving on bars of soap. You probably didn't notice how bad they are on a Boxster because they are in the back but trust me, these are not good for our cars. Spend a little more and get some tires that are at least closer to what should be on your fine auto. (an extra $400.00 is only about .02 per mile but you get better, safer, more fun handling-and I'm guessing that one potential accident will easily outweigh the $400 as well). I am putting 4 new Bridgestones on my Boxster in 2 weeks and cant wait!
Theres my .02 of experience. Best luck to you!
