I appreciate all the responses. Sounds like Costco is the way to go for me for the tires I'm looking for. RJ, it does appear that they do appointments now so hopefully it won't be misery but we shall see. Also thanks for the info on the Michelin, they are the best rated of the bunch and have the best sale at the moment. Big investment but should last me a while as well as provide some additional safety to my current tire.
The BFGoodrich is a close second both in ratings and the fact they are cheaper but noise seems to be an issue with them later in life, probably wouldn't bother me but who knows.
