Default need your opinion: best 14" tire besides azenis...

i am going to need some new 14" tires since my current ones are snows and i can't run on them for much longer (wearing away incredibly fast in the warm weather). what is the best 14" tire (185/60/14 preferrably) that i could get. obviously there arent any high performance tires in this size, but what about some decent ones. thanks.

yeah, il clarify a little on that. looking for street tires (i know the bfg drags are street, but you know what i mean). something with some decent tread life and a good price. the azenis are only $51 a piece shipped, but im not sure how much id like them in 195/60/14 or their rain performance. thanks for the reply though...

Dunlop Sport A2
$~50 At TireRack.com

420 tread rating.

I purchaced a set for my Civic and I couldn't be happier. They're quiet, great in the snow, and have much better grip than I expected.

Edit: Sears or Townfair can probably match or beat that price.

The Yokohama AVS ES100 come in 195/60VR14! I would highly recommend them as an alternative to Azenis. They are supposed to have as good dry grip as the old AVS-I but more wet grip!

i picked up a set of toyo proxes t1s but they are 16s. I dont know if they make a 14, but the tread wear is awesome, better than most other tires.
