If you order tires from offline look for TireDeals4Less. They have a banner here on the forum. They sell the Toyo Proxes 4's in stock size for 110 a tire. Great performance all season tire. I recently got to use them in the snow and had no problems. Obviously not as good as a full winter tires, but more than doable.

For a summer only tire, my favorite is the Bridgestone RE-01R.

Goodyear f1 all seasons are what I went with. Glad I did. I love them. In my opinion they are way better than my old pirelli's.
