I'm running Falken 452's which were about £100 a corner for 215/40/18's, great in the warm and dry, not so great in the cold and wet.

Falken's or Toyo's are good choices.

Vreds

All day long. Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas. I'll be going onto my fifth set of these in the next couple of months. Really great tire.
