Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta.

Inexpensive and perform like a mother fvcker. (they find traction in places where traction could not be found) Last long too.

I'm on my 3rd set of Bridgestone Potenza RE050A with Stock 19" Wheels.
They are a bit noisy and expensive but I have been getting around 46,000 miles for each set...is this good?

No noise whatsoever from the tires. Then again, I'm rolling on stock spec tires. As much as I wanted aftermarket wheels and wide tires, my mechanic convinced me to stick with stock. He made a good argument for the fact that the car was extensively tested and developed for those.
I did hear a weird noise and had loss of traction with my Toyos in the past, never again for me.

I think it has to do with how you drive the car and a good wheel alignment. When I got my car, my front hankook v12 was new and rear bridgestone had 4/12. 20000 miles later, my oem bridgestone went down to 1/32 and my front hankook still has 8/32. I just got new 255/40/19 for my rears with a wheel alighnment. Granted, I rarely launch my car, I floor and rev my car to 7k a few times a week.
