The Primacy MXM4 tires in size 245/40R19 fits my F-sport perfectly. I have AWD so non-staggered set up.

Great! I currently have the Dunlops with 12k and they are cupping on the inside shoulders and riding rough already. I do quite a bit of hwy driving (2-3k a month) so I am going to switch to the Primacy's. Have you noticed any significant performance/handling changes?
Thanks!
Thanks!

The car is definitely smoother and quieter especially on the highways without the vibration and choppiness of the original bridgestones that I had on the car, The handling is still 90% of the original tires with slight decrease in steering feedback but that what you get when you want nice all season tires with good performance edge along with traction and longetivity. These tires should last at least 45K miles. I am very happy with them so far.
PROS:
I can rotate side to side and then remount tires front to rear after 15k or or so
they will last 2-3 times longer than the summer tires
rides very nice (although I find myself in Sport + mode more often now)
soaks up bumps especially city driving
very quiet
CONS:
slight performance drop in handling (MMV depending on your driving style) I did notice it will still grip great when pushing the car to its limits. The suspension on the GS is top notch!

Great advice. I have been riding on these for a week now. I dropped the staggered setup and run the Primacy's at 42 lbs. I picked up 2 mpg's (28 to 29 mpg now at 80 mph 90% hwy)
