Welcome to CLublexus. What do you want in a tire and how will u drive. The best performance tire is probalby the Goodyear F1 DS. Cheap good tires are Kumho Esctas and Yokohoma AVS ES 100s....

just a note about the yokohama es100s- they are ok but they get noisy half way through and then REALLY loud when they only have 25% life left.

The RE960 would be a great choice for Chicago.
