    I recommend Falken Ziex 912s, if you get the right price it should come out to be aobut $200 in total.

    I second the Falken Ziex tires. I have the ones at the link posted earlier: http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/fi...yr=1998&pc=28854&cf=false&vid=006515&sw=false

    My old tires, some goodyear viva 2's, were a death trap. After a near-death experience on a wet exit ramp (at 30 mph, no less), I got the Falken Ziex ZE512 tires. They do tend to wear a little quickly, but I haven't driven on tires with better grip. I have yet to lose control of the car (and I have deliberately tried to a couple of times). Even when the car slides, I have control. The tires stick to the road like you wouldn't believe.

    They're also dirt cheap. So I say: get them!

    I agree, Falken makes the best tires you can buy for the price.
