Nathan, glad those tires working out for you. Full disclosure Wheels Direct is owned by my Wife's distant cousin. I don't buy from him coz as a heavily discounted buyer i get pushed to the back and have to wait forever to get my tires done. Best place to research and buy tires in the GTA is http://simplytire.com/. They aren't the cheapest price but they are pretty fair, ie. if they don't have to mount the tire/wheels on your car they normally give a bit of discount, not many shops do that, Allen sold the shop at the beginning of this year, so not sure if they still do that but you can ask.
Blakcard, I've used several sets of chinese tires on my tire eating 540, with 320 ft-lbs of torque I loved doing burnouts and shredding those tires; had pretty good results with chinese tires and believe they are safe and would buy again, if the circumstance warrant doing so again but if I can afford something better I certainly would coz with tires you do get what you're paying for.
To be honest, for my front wheel drive cars I alway choose a tire that have great sidewall constructions and guarantee good front grip and response, as opposed to choosing the cheapest price.
As always, your money your choice.
