Default Tire dilemma.......

Just got my 20" Auto Couture Supremes 8.5 for the front and 9.5 for the rear. I'm shopping for tires, and considering they're going on my LS430, I want to keep the ride as QUIET and SMOOTH as possible. Also, as I am going with a staggered setup, I want the MAX LIFE out of them since I wont be able to rotate.
I live in Phoenix so don't really worry about wet traction.

Recommendations for tires? Wanted to go with the Falken Azenis st115 but they don't make a 275/30-20...............!@#$%!

I want to stick with 275 for the rear and 245 for the front.

In Front: 245/35-20
In Rear 275/30-20
in addition to those already mentioned you could consider Bridgestone S-03 , Continental ContSport and
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S though the wet traction capability may be of little use or interest to you there in Phx
