Good experience with KUMHO's 100% recommended.
On the other hand I've heard good comments about the F1.

Price vs quality....mmmm.... I do not know if it is worth the difference.

If you want to check for prices and current models.

www.discounttire.com Decent prices

I'd go with either the Stones or the Kumhos, depends upon price.

You need to read what's included at discount. I believe that includes the mounting and balancing which obviously tirerack can't do since they are just boxing and shipping. They won't be that much more final cost at discount and you'll have the benefit of being a buying customer when you go in. It's always best to spend your money with your local store when possible.

ok i just ordered 4 bridgestone potenza re960as for 160 each, on the car (mounting balanceing and new valve stem) so the grand total comes out to a final price of $640. is that a fair price.

i got a quote for the eagle f1's. they were $158 each. i believe i made the better choice by goin with the potenzas rite
