Thanks for everyone's feedback. I had meant to reply to some of the suggestions earlier but I've been dealing with the probably replacement of my wife's car and haven't had the time.

Tires for the 560 will probably be a mid-summer investment and the G-Y HP's are the most likely candidates.

Luke - I find it interesting going through the reviews on tirerack.com for several of the possible contenders. It seems that for every extremely positive comment posted, there's an equally negative one. Is there an source for independant, objective testing results? I'm talking about good statistics on stoping distance dry and wet and skid pad results (again dry and wet) for each model of tire (obviously the tests would have to be done with the exact same vehicle in order to be meaningful)?

Thanks
jlc
