You haven't skimped on other areas of the car--tires can make a dramatic difference in the performance of the car (and the degree to which you can harness the power from your 511). I would imagine you should still be able to upgrade to the Avons at this time through your dealer. IMHO, this would be among the best invesments you could make in your car to improve the performance and handling.
The tires suggested were MT Sportsman S/R with flamed tread. Rated up to 130MPH at US$215 front and US$237 rear. How does that compare to Avons?
