how often do you wanna buy tires??..if you want a good set, i had a set of Falken FK452s...they gripped good, and were pretty quite, but they lasted me a year and a bit, but my alignment is also out...im looking into the general UHP's for my next set, they seem pretty good, same with the Toyo Proxy 4s

I have a set of Yokohama ES100's and i love them. they were affordable yet performed very well on a daily basis. They have really good grip, even more when its warm. And for those super rare days here in socal when it rains, they feel safe to drive on, even on freeways. They look good too imo  hope that helps! |

What size are your new wheels?
There are plenty of affordable tires that have good grip For more performance oriented tires I suggest the ES100, Falken Azenis 512, and Kumho MX. There are plenty more but those are the tires I have personally abused. |
