Default Tire Recommendations for '02 S60 T5

I need to buy a new set of tires for my '02 S60 T5 and am looking for some good suggestions. I bought the car usedthree years ago and it came with Perelli tires on it.

The Perelli's seem a little expensive, but I'm wondering if that's the best option regardless of the expense.

Any opionions and recommendations you all might have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Greg

If you are looking for preformance tires...
Perelli's are nice but wear fast...I have used Bridgestone Potenza RE050A (S-03), and have found them to be awsome. They have about 25,000 miles on them now and they could go a little more, but a few bad suspension parts riuned them. Other good brands are: Kumho, Yokohama, BFGoodrich...ect.

You don't tell us if you have the 16" or 17" rims but I have the Michelin Pilot A/S+ and so far they rock, but I only have 200 miles on them.

I will let you know when I have more miles on.

I have the 18' pegs with yokohama yk520's I guess it's a "performance tire for the everyday driver" so far so good, no wear on them yet, had them about 1500 miles, good feel on the ground too, I recomend them.
