I'd go with Nitto Invo's or Hankook V12's.

245/40-19 - Front
285/35-19 - Rear

Very good tires for the price and they're sexy as hell.

They are quoting the run flats. You can buy Potenza's factory size but not run flats at WalMart for $196.00 and will ship free to closest one that has Tire & Lube Department.

Just my 2 cents: I replaced the original AM factory Bridgestones on my 09 Vantage this spring. While they only had 8900 miles on them, they were showing dry rot. I replaced all of them with the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires in stock sizes. Tire Rack rates the Michelins slightly higher than the Bridgestones. My local tire store also matched the Tire Rack price. While there are many good tire choices, I have found the Michelins to be very quiet with great handling after 2k miles.

Do you realize you just offered 2017 information for postings that were done in 2009 and 2013? Talk about digging up an old thread

I just got the Michelin 4S's and love them so far. I think they were about $1300 out the door at America's Tire.

I've used both, prefer the hankooks which seem to wear better. Great tire for the money.
