If you have time (doesn't sound like you do though), order from Tirerack. They have an arrangement with UPS now that when you order, you just pay a flat fee for brokerage. The savings are huge. But you will need to line up a local installer. I know the Kal Tire I've frequented charges more for installing tires you bring to them as opposed to tires you've bought from them.

Otherwise...I've enjoyed Falken GR-Beta FK451/452s in the past. You might want to look at some Kumhos too. Not all the shops carry these brands though, might take some digging around.

i'm in the market for some new rear tires as well, my rears are pretty much toast.

Once you get the new tires i'd be interested if you could post up what kind you went with and what your total came to including installation.
