Default Tire Mfg Selection

Hi Guys,
I'm driving an SC400 with 17x8 GS430 rims and Yoko 245x45 A520's that are worn out. I never go over 100 mph and want a good tire at reasonable cost. My shop has some Falken's on sale but I'm open to some good advice. Please help!

Cheers,
James

depends on your budget:

dunlop sp5000/9000
yokos avs db2, es100

stone s-03/re750

falkens are not bad for the price

If u just cruise, the Kumhos can't be beat dollar wise. I look Yokohomas and Bridestones after that.

I like the Sumitomo HTR+ for ride quality treadlife and price.
