Tyres - Thoughts on replacing Michelin PSS

Hi all,

Firstly - Although this is a tyre based topic, I've posted in the Aus section to obtain feedback on tyres here in Australia based on our market, conditions, pricing etc.

I need to change the rears on a 135, currently fitted with Michelin PSS.
These were a fantastic tyre however I cannot justify the price tag for such a small amount of usage; 7,000km I achieved from the current set. I don't drive like an idiot - burnouts etc. but do drive 'spiritedly'.

I am therefore looking for tyres that I can get some more mileage from and aren't too expensive but are still a good grippy item. The car is street only no motorsport.

Presently I'm steering towards Falken FK453s; has anyone used these? I didn't have much joy searching for topics on these particular tyres on this site...
I can get rears fitted for $320 each.

What other avenues have you gone down and at what cost?
Are there any others to consider?
