Out experience is almost the opposite. On our 2001 9.5 Aero we had Bridgstone Potenza's (put on by previous owner) and experienced extreme cupping and wear to steel bands on the inner side after 27K miles. Based on recommendations by members of this board, we installed Avon 550's, 31k miles ago. They have become a bit loud, compared to the Michlin MVX's on our other SAAB 9.5 SW, but have worn evenely with no noticible cupping and were OK in light snow. I'd buy them again, especially with the deal you quoted. We rotate every 6K and "flipped" the tires on the rims at 15K. Good Luck.
