[s-cars] I need some new summer tires that don't cost mush anyideas?

[LL - NY]

They aren't cheap.  FWIW, Grassroots Motorsports seems to have very high
regard for the Falken Ziex 912 as a budget performance tire (won their
budget performance tire test this year). They rate it as good handling wet
or dry and long lasting, just like it's previous version the Ziex 512. It
typically ranges under $100 a tire. Try www.tires.com as a start point, and
shop around. Unfortunately, Falken is one of the lines NOT carried by
TireRack, so there are no comparos of them on their site.
