>> It turns out I need new, front tires.  I don't race my car, but I drive it a lot (the current Toyo Proxes were new in 2008), and sometimes, on a long trip, I might hypothetically drive at a hypothetically high speed for a time.

>> 
>> 1) The Les Schwab company discontinued the Proxes 225 50 15 which I have now, but they still have 7 left in the Country.  They are probably 4 or 5 years old, but are new, and have been stored inside in a cool, dry area.  They will match the Toyos on the rear of the car and cost less than $400 for both including mounting and tax.  They are only rated to 149 mph.
>> 
>> 2) Pirelli P-0 tires are also available in the correct size.  They are rated to 200 mph, will be newly-produced, but won't match what I have on the back, and will cost over $800.00.  
>> 
>> Which should I buy, Toyo or Pirelli?
