I have a convertible, too, which I only drive in dry weather and tires have been a big deal w/ me, too. Five years ago, used Dunlap D40 M2, excellent tires, fast wear, but great dry grip. then went to Yoko Intermediate avs, which were also fast wear, but excellent tires. Recently, replaced yoko's w/ Sumatomo, which I like, but are not quite at the level of D40's or yoko AVS, but close. The Sumo's are really cheap, like $30 some bucks at tire rack, so a great value for $$. I'm not bothered by fast wear because I know I have a strong gripping tire and I'll pay for that peace of mind.
On our 9000, recently put on Pirelli P6000 and they vibrate so badly the steering wheel shakes. Have had the tires balanced three times, and the front end checked out twice and it's determined that the tires are bad, so I won't buy them again...can't wait to put the Hakki snows on again ;-)
