im going with goodyear eagle gt's or yokohama's...if i can find yoko's at a good price.

and if i dont upgrade my rims, i'll be upgrading to a 195 series for better selection. do some research on 195 60 15/s for better options, more sporty appearances over the 'eco friendly' selection from factory.

Yokohama AVID ENVigor; high mileage tyre with excellent wet and dry traction, plus super quiet ride.

Star Specs were all the rage around here for traction.

My tires are Yokohama AS430, and I haven't a complaint about them yet.

I've been very happy with my Falken Ziez 912s. All-season, fairly quiet, decent performance.

X2.

Starspecs btw, are harsh and noisy. They do, however, have phenominal grip. I happen to have a used set of Starspecs for sale...

I loved my Toyo Proxes 4 set. Will do it again next time I need new.
