Whats the best 19" pure performance tire I can put on my 230's (non-runflat). At a reasonable price.

Michelin PS2s seem to be a popular choice. There's a cheaper Falken alternative that people say don't perform as well, but about $100 a tire. There's the Toyo T1S.

On DiscountTireDirect.com (where I ordered mine), the Michelin PS2's are $299/tire (235/35/19) and $326/tire (265/30/19) compared with the Falken FK452's which are $163/tire (235/35/19) and $249/tire (265/30/19)...DTD's prices are a little better than TireRack.com, and they have free shipping!!! TireRack.com charges for shipping. Based on ppl's opinions, experiences and reviews, I went with the more expensive, but supposedly better PS2's...but, those Falkens are very tempting.

I just put on my PS2s and absolutely love them. They are a fantastic tire except they just dont like snow for obvious reasons.
