Default Which brand of tires is the best for our cars ?

Ok so i am in need for some new tires to put on my new wheels once they arrive (iforged sprint 19 inch).

But i have no idea what brand of tires are actually good these days.
i was told Pirelli P Zero Rosso are good.
but i do not know anything about Pirelli on cars just on Bikes.
Toyo or Yokohama are to ricy and i have being told they also got a high wear rate.

Goodyear, Firestone or Michelin maybe ?

Default depends on what you want out of your tires

i have kumho asx for their fairly good grip, bi-directional orientation, and good wear rating
