Pirelli's are great but the compound is quite soft and they wear out quickly. I like the Michelin rubber's lasting ability combined with good grip.
Tire Rack sells tires at a good price and their shipping isn't outrageous... and you will save on sales tax. I buy from them and take my rims to a Discount Tire that has a Hunter 9700 series road-force balancing machine. This ensures the heaviest part of the tire is put on the lightest part of the rim... and they're all a tad heavier on one side. This reduces the number of weights used as well as unnecessary vibration which is a nagging issue on our cars for some reason.
Call Tire Rack and get a delivered price on two rear tires and then call Discount Tire and get a price for mounting and balancing your tires vs. buying the same tires through them. The price may be close.
