I had P6s on my 06 9-3, they had cracked around the entire interior periphery.
After a lot of research, I picked up some Yokahama Advan S.4s. They are probably not the highest performance tire available, but they're quiet, are good in rain, exhibit no tramlining, have excellent grip and have a 40K mile warranty to boot. I've been extremely pleased with them, have about 2K miles on them so far. I think these were 235/45/ZR17, so they're rated for a lot faster than I'll ever drive.
A lot of tires that people liked seemed to have a lifespan of around 10K miles. That is not acceptable for me since I'd end up putting on new tires every year at a cost of $700-1000. One review site I ran across had around 6 or 7 pages of reviews on the Yokohamas and only 2 people had negative comments.
Anyway, I like them and I'd buy them again.
