My Primacy HPs (DOT label says 2012) are starting to dry rot/crack @ 25K(used car that didnt get driven much before i bought it) and i have RPF1 17x8s on the way and need some tire advice. I honestly didnt think these were terrible tires but they are pricey and for the amount of grip they have they are pretty loud.

Looking for 215/45/17s, summer performance tires under $130 if possible. I do a lot of highway driving but do like to wind it out on curvy roads so i dont want a mushy tire.

The Continental ExtremeContact Sports (not DW's) look like a good deal though i've never used contis. Supposedly about as good as Michelin PSS at $50 a tire cheaper... anyone else have any good recommendations?
