i just got the sumitomo tires from tire rack, same sizes, 66 apiece for the front, 88 a piece for the rear (275 40 17). I like em, and they last long enough for me, but I don't beat on em...

Those are the ones I have. Traction sucks but they are holding up well.

And I have 315's

I have these in 245/45R17 on all fours. They make 275/40R17 too. They have lasted through my abuse, are Z rated, and are really good in the rain. Cost a hair more but I think it is worth it.

These have been great for me. Good traction, amazing in the rain and haven't shown much wear after 10,000 miles of hard driving.
