Unfortunately their shipping rates kill the price. Best price is from discounttiredirect.com, and DTD normally includes free shipping. If you go to the store (Discount Tire), they are normally a few bucks more per tire. Tell them to match the DTD price. I think install is $30 for all 4.
I myself have wanted some Falken FK452's for a while, yet after seeing good reviews on the Pilot Sport A/S Plus, I might go that route (they are more expensive, but higher treadwear...). Listening to both options/reviews from members

$611 delivered from Vulcan, $670 from Discount tires. Priced on 4x 225/40x18. I'd suggest you price them out on both sites for your location.

a car that can't do the throttle reset.
Can we safely run "R" rated tires? Or do they have to be "ZR"?
I am confused because Tirerack states that "ZR" is basically a 150mph + capable tire. But some specs on "R" tires show them with speed ratings up to 168 mph.
i.e. 225/45R17

An "R" rated tire is only good for 106mph. That "R" you see in the tire size is not the speed rating (and neither is "ZR") it means the tire is a Radial. Check this out for info on speed ratings: http://www.dunntire.com/Learning_Cen..._Speed_Ratings. Stay with what the manufacturer recommends!
I read your link, so that letter where I mentioned has no significant meaning if I know the tire's speed rating? I ask because searching on tirerack shows both "R" and "ZR" in the sizing line.
