Which tire is for me?

Currently my tires have good rubber on them but I want to start looking for a new set before they get too bad. I don't do racing or anything like that so I don't need a high performance tire just something to get me to point A to B. Something All-Season would be awesome considering we get tons of rain and a little bit of ice each year. So pretty much the cheapest but good tire I could fine really.

take a look at the fuzion hri.

very inexpensive tire that provides great all-season performance.

i dont know ur tire size but expect to pay about 50 bucks per tire.

check out tirerack.com thats the best tire site.

you can go with a 215 40 zr18

If you want bang for your buck, but still want quality and dependability get Falken Ziex 912's. They will ride great, be quiet, be VERY low on cost, and have very deep tread. I sell these tires like hotcakes at our shop =)

the falken 912's are AWESOME in the rain, shitty as ***** in the snow and just so-so on dry roads for handling...if you're looking for some decent all season tires that arent gonna cost you a boat load of $$$, i'd look into kumho ecsta's or falken 912's or 452's, def worth the money IMHO

I have the goodyear eagle as/c that come on the Vibe GT on mine. 215-45-18, got them for about $100 apiece from tirerack. I'm not worried about being able to race or auto-x, I just wanted decent traction and treadlife. Only thing these are lacking on is if you try to launch on them.
