        Treadzone has Ventus R-S2 for 80 bucks each. I like Falken 452 Have had 3 sets on different cars and two sets of the tires that preceded the 452s

          Some people on here have ran that but it is pretty oversized.

            I'm in the T1R camp. I've had a couple sets now and they have worn beautifully and seem to perform pretty well.

                T1Rs are great all-around tires, they are decently grippy, shed water well, are typically lighter than similar tires and do not wear all that quickly. However, the downside of a light tire is generally the sidewall, which definitely seemed a little soft when I had my set (245/45R16), they can be a bit pricey (not too bad) and they just can't compete with the lower treadwear tires when it comes to grip. Toyo happens to make them in about a thousand sizes, though, which is very nice.

                  the toyo t1r is $160/piece on tirerack in 225/45/16. realize that they are overpriced. they list the 245/40/18 size at $230/piece, when i got them locally at $180/piece. so you can probably find them for $80/90 a piece of you do some searching.

                    Tirerack doesn't sell toyos.
