If you're looking for cheap performance summer tires I'd recomment the General Exclaim UHP or the Sumitomo HTRZ III, you'd be VERY surprised they handle and grip about 90% as well as a tire double it's cost, VERY well worth the money at about $80-$100/tire. I bought a set of the Exclaims and was very surprised, and 3 of my friends are running the HTRZ's and both tires are amazing for that pricepoint.
Pros: excellent handling, good grip
generally i buy BFG or Michelin, as when i worked in a garage, they were the best wearing, least problematic, and best performing tires for my needs.... Falkens/goodyears/bridgestones wear great tires (assuming they bought the correct tire for their application) but each had their troubles... often times it was customer maintinence, people never aligned, checked pressure, or other random issues... other times it was the tires generally wearing out too damned fast, as seen with most of the newer goodyears, and on a trip to test drive for goodyear, they even told me that they were having some issues with wear... bridgestones just never impressed me for the price, as there was a BFG G-force in the mix that was always as good...
Pros: best wearing, least problematic
Cons: wear out too fast
I plan to buy these tires for sure, they seem to be the top stretch tire along with the 512 Falken.
Pros: top stretch tire
Three Bridgestone Potenza RE750 tires, size 205/40/17 W80 About 1000 mi on them and a very sticky performance tire.
Pros: very sticky performance
Mileage: 1000 km
They are \"ok\" in the rain. They like to skate around a bit, but nothing major. Definitely manageable in non-downpouring conditions.
Pros: manageable in rain
Cons: skate around a bit
I could tell driving these in 45 degrees that they had turned to rock and grip was seriously lost. NEVER drive them in the snow.
Cons: grip seriously lost

Volkswagen
