Default Which tire is better....

Hey guys i need to buy some tires ASAP. I am currently running 235/35/19. What are some good tires that i can get. I have heard of Genaral Exclaim UHP, Kumho Ecsta SPT. Im not speed racer either. And i really dont want to hear the tires all the time. I dont want to spend more than $200 a tire. Can you guys recomend some that you all are running. I know there might be some topics on this but im in a bit of a rush to get to the tire shop. Thanks again guys.

check out tirerack.com. i dont buy through them, i just use their review system on tires. im running 235/40/18 yokohama s-drives and i love them to death. i recommend them, and at $180.00 a tire, it meets your budget

I got my sport-sized General Exclaim UHP from tirerack.com and have no complaints. Had them for almost 30k miles and they are holding fine. Handle pretty well and actually do quite great in the snow.

Running BFG's and happy with them so far and no uneven wear. Stay away from the Falken's, i read somewhere that they wear funny and fast.

so far the best all season tired ive ever owned are Nokian WRG2s
theyre fairly expensive ( anywhere from 170- 300 a pop depending on size) but deffinately worth the money

Yokohama's. I've got about 20k on them. Quieter than the Pirelli's and I'm more confident in tight cornering. Had them all winter in Colorado with no probs. Even going over Vail Pass during a 'squall'.
