Tires?

Ok im losing the firestones really soon...thank God.....So now the question is, "Michelin Destiny or Pirelli P3000" The Michelin destiny combined the high performance pilot and touring symmetry to make a high performance all season tire. The cool thing is the treadwear index number is 680...so what do you guys think when given those two to choose from?

Their are vry ricky to mount onto wheels..because of the smaller insie diameter (almost 1cm smaller than all othe tires) and the rubber componds they use...they tear easy.
