Got a question -- I need new rear tires (only got 13k miles out of the continental DWS) and am wondering about the new Pirellis that are out there. I am going from the 35 to the 40 aspect for a better ride (I live in NW PA so the roads are probably some of the worst out there). Tire Rack has the Scorpion verdes for $149 in the 255/40/19 -- but it is listed as a crossover/suv tire. Mostly interested due to the price/treadwear rating.

Has anyone given them a shot? Granted they are only H-rated (but I don't go to the track so speed rating isn't much of an issue). Think they would be worth trying for $149/each? I mean, I am a broke medical student so saving money is a big priority.
