Need new tires on 2004 Manual with 18's

Here's my TL with 18x9 SSR GT7 wheels.

It's ready for a new set of tires. It's on 245/40ZR-18 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S now. I think I got almost 40k out of them so far. Should I get another set?

This ride has some torque steer and gets a little choppy as the tires wear down. A long overdue rotate also gave me a nice hum for 5k miles, but it finally went away.

Any advice on the next set?

been there, done that - my main concern is the torque from a manual transmission and if I can overcome some of that with a different set
