Default Goodyear GS-D3s are popular. Tirerack is having a sale that brings it close to your range.

I am looking at the same thing now and am going to call around before pulling the trigger.

Falken Azenis RT-615 hands down for the $$! Should be about $135 for your size.

Default ^^^ Goodyear F1 GSD3: The best tires I have ever used. Great performance, comfort, quality, and...

they make driving in even a downpour feel like a dry, summer day. I highly recommend them.
