Default HELP!!! Potennza Tire Blowout!!

I had a rear Potennza blow out Saturday morning while driving 60 MPH on I-5. Tires were cold, as I had only been on the road for five minutes. But I was not driving it hard at all. Rainey conditions existed!

I wish to replace the rears only this week. Can I do this safely, putting on Pirelli's, Mitchelins, or Toyo's?

Any one have any favorites other than Potennza's!!!!

might as well get some blizzaks for the winter for all 4 wheels, and worry about the sport tires when spring comes
