Evo 5 questions and tire reccomendations?

I am planning on buying 18's by June. Is tirerack the cheapest place that sells them? I've looked everywhere and can't find a better price ($980ish if i remember right). What 245/40R18 tires should I get? I'm looking at NT 555 Extreme Performance for $560 shipped at discounttiredirect, Yokohama AVS Sport for $730 w/o s/h, Dunlop SP Sport 9000 for $730 w/o s/h, & Sumitomo HTR Z II for $564 w/o s/h all at tirerack. I am looking for a strictly summer tire since i already have winter tires. Any recs? If anyone is thinking about selling theirs and they're in good condition feel free to email me. Thanks in advance.

go to a discout tire store and just buy it all there. I bought my extra Evo 5 there and a Nitto 555. Discount tire gets their Mille Miglia Evo 5's from tirerack.com anyways. And shipping is only $12. My 19's was $297 at discount and $299 at tire rack. Then when you get the total price just say thats a little more than I was looking to spend and they will drop the price a little and they you apply for a discount tire co. credit card with 6 months same as cash.
