I'm getting both em replaced tomorrow and I advise my Fellow Z members to check your pulleys if u hear a "Ticking" sound cuz that's what happened to mine I just ignored it thinking it was normal from the car.
This might be overkill, but when I have replaced the serpentine belt on other cars, I always replace the idler pulleys, then replace the tensioner around 75K. While the belt tends to run in the $50 to $60 range, the pulleys are around $20 (prices might be different for our cars, I'll check and see). With the amount of work it takes to get to the serpentine belt, it would seem to me to make sense to replace the idler pulleys at the same time.
