Tires GISLAVED or VITOUR
We have Vitour Galaxy white stripe tires on our car in 185/80-14 size. They are affordable and works very good.
Pros: affordable, works very good
BUT THEY WERE BOTH AWESOME RUBBER, AND YOU COULD DRIVE STRAIGHT UP ANYWHERE
Pros: awesome rubber, drive anywhere

We have Vitour Galaxy tires on our car. They are affordable and work very good. We have a 1979 230 and the stock size there would be 175SR14. The closest I could find with white stripes was the Vitour tires in 185/80-14. They are a little bit taller than the stock size and fill out the wheel opening a little bit more, but I like how it looks and drives.
Pros: affordable, work very good, good looks, good drive
I've had Gislaved Nordfrost 200...My favorites were the Gislaved and will be getting new ones this year.
Pros: favorites, getting new ones

I'm on vitour p1's right now. Its a very fast tire that doesn't melt like the a052, but its still a super 200 tread life wise.
Pros: very fast, doesn't melt
Cons: super 200 tread life
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Corvette C5
For a good balance of LONG wear and good grip I've been getting Gislaved NordFrosts. Those things seriously take four winters of high mileage, mostly bare pavement commuting to wear out.
Pros: long wear, good grip, durable
I switched from cup2's to vitour's on my 981 gt4 and have no complaints. They last longer and I think they more consistent than the cup2's.
Pros: last longer, more consistent

They look better than my Vitours I bought in may... 90 minutes of track day time and 7 asphalt autocross events.
Cons: poor durability
I came across the Vitour Galaxy R1s — they’re V-rated, which is cool, but I’m not sure if they’re DOT approved. From what I can tell, they’re made by a South African brand (possibly China-owned) and seem to be geared toward drift/race use.
Just wondering if anyone’s actually run these? How’s the grip and overall quality? I’m aiming for a tire that can handle daily driving and still be fun in the corners without dropping $500+ on Avons CR6ZZ
Pros: V-rated tire
Cons: DOT approval uncertain
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
Meh. Stones until they're proven. The regular P1's were a bunch of hype, which I was looking forward to, then they didn't deliver.
Cons: didn't deliver, just hype
Vehicle:
Subaru BRZ
