Thanks to those that referenced the Car & Driver article (
http://www.caranddriver.com/comparis...mparison-tests).
The article reaffirmed my choice of the Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sports which finished 4th in the comparison. I was tempted by the Hankook Ventus V12 Evos but decided to go with the Bridgestones due to better wear.
Thanks for all the advice given here.
