OP, Check discounttire.com ot tirerack.com for pricing and find what fits your budget. I had a set of Yokohama S-drives and loved them but changed my wheels and they came with tires already. They should fit your budget. Run flats ride like crap generally. You can put a different pair on the rear axle with no problems at all as long as both sides on the same axle are the same tires. Get a camber kit. Was camber the issue with your tire, or was it a defect, road debris, just plain worn out?

Damn dude I feel for you big time. My tires need to be replaced too, they're probably just as bad as yours but I have even wear all along the tire because of my camber kit. After running -4.1 camber in the rear for 2 only 2 weeks my tires already started wearing out on the inside dramatically. That's why I tell everyone to get a damn camber kit even with the Eibach drop. It's better to be safe than sorry.

My rears did the same thing at 18k. I had steel belt showing for a while then the right rear looked just like that. Just get new tires and an alignment and you'll be fine

Try Global Tires in Wilmington (310) 816-9300. I just got new rear tires from them Saturday. I got a pair of Michelin PS2's for $140 each, and that was for 275/35/19s. Talk to either Veronica or Cynthia, they'll help you out. Make sure you tell them you're from the G37 or G35 website and they'll give you a better price.
