Tires Falken or SUMITOMO
I have falkens on my acura mdx on 20s. they're a summer high performance tire. make my SUV handle like a porsche. LOVE THEM.
Have Falkens on my '03 Civic Si. No problems in the wet and I'm in South Florida. Replaced original Michelins with them with no regrets.They're a pretty good tire in my opinion.
Falken makes a pretty decent tire. I don't think they have high performance, but for a daily driver, they're pretty good.
I had the same tire in 245-45-17 (I think that was it) with a 99 load rating on my former '00 and liked them a lot. Quiet, comfortable, decent handling, and great price at the time.
I ran 615 on the street as well as a half dozen or so autocross events and saw ~15K miles out of the set.
I run the sumitomo 215/50s but I got a 185/60 for a spre so it fits under the rear mat.
the summitomo HTR-200 are a relatively decent tire. They are super cheap and come in several sizes that would work for you.
I just got 4 Sumitomo HTR Z III's and they were super cheap, 300 treadwear rating, pretty sweet tread pattern, and reinforced sidewall, all for $107 a piece from TireRack, pretty reasonable. There's almost no road noise and they grip pretty well, I just hope they last!
i was going to get falken 512 in the 195 50 15s and save me $40 for the set, but 195 45 15 never been there, mine as well and try it out! rides comfortably as 195 50 15 doesn't feel any different from the 50 series!
Compared to the Dunlop SP-5000 Sports on my GLI, which have a couple years on them at this point and only cost $74 apiece, the Falkens are awful; they don't grip, they're ugly, and they're noisy.
