Or does it really not make a difference what the limit is, as long as I'm under it. Just wondering if that is something I should factor into my decision.
I wouldn't worry about the difference between 44 and 51 PSI. Either will do fine at 40 psi. (I run 40 - 45 PSI (cold) in my FWD vehicles with 5 PSI more in the rear)

Prices went up a lot last year. For reference I paid $671.80 for the Michelin Pilot Sports with the same $150 discount. (Which is the most I've ever paid for a set of 4 tires)
