I want to thank everyone for you ongoing advice, and feel free to continue to weigh in, perhaps others will benefit from the conversation. BUT: I bought tires already. I went with the Falkens, and got Tire Kingdom to price match the best online deal I could find, including shipping, and they reduced their mount and balance price as well. I was forced to do a $70 alignment though, it was pretty obviously out of tolerance, and the ride is now drastically improved. Again, thanks everyone, I really benfited from this discussion.
