Here in germany they costīs 40 % less than Michelin and are much better in grip by raining weather. I aslo purchasing for my 9-5 4 new tires. A customer (car manufacturer) from me ordered me 4 pices of DUNLOP SP 9000 in dimension of 225/45 R17 and i pay 75 $/tire. The normal list price is 275 $ by a dealer. My customer told me, that enduser rebats of 30 % are normal, so i can suggest you to deal! Michael
