The pair with 8/32" still have lots of life left; high performance summer tires are usually molded with 9-10/32" tread depth; 8/32" is barely worn.

Awesome!!! Thanks. I will not be purchasing till tread depth worsens.

I like the continental dw, there really light, inexpensive and there one of the best rain tire's out there.
also a pretty decent tread wear.
there usually in the top 5-10, never 1st place but I think they are a good all around affordable summer tire.

I guess I will be the one to say it. You should wait until you can afford the Michelin PSSs, they are simply awesome.

I guess I'll chime in here. I use the RE760's and LOVE them, especially for the price. BUT... that may be because I can get 2 sport rears for cost at only $370. Price aside, they perform well, are decently quite compared to stock, and are more confidence inspiring on the rain. Since most people don't track their car, I can't see much reason or need to go beyond them. I can think of lots else to do with the difference in price.

Not on any website that I would trust with my purchase (where are you looking?). Tire Rack has the P Zeros at $852 and that is with the fronts on crazy closeout because they have less than two left. All the other tires are either not worth discussing or more than $850 or both
