Default 95 accord Goodyear or NTB for tires?

I need new tires and I'm torn between NTB and a Goodyear store. NTB would be more convenient and has a wider selection, including Goodyears and Michelin's but I get the feeling they try to upsell a lot.

What would be the best Goodyear or other tire choice? Or should I just do NTB? I do about 70% highway and 30% city. Snow and ice are not really a concern because I live where it only snows once a year or so.

The Goodyear site gives me a choice between these. Note that the RS-A doesn't seem to have much of a warranty, but I am still leaning toward the RS-A anyways. I am a suspicious person when $$ is involved, so the cheapest thing feels sketchy and the more expensive ones seem like they are a bunch of fluff without any real added value. I could be wrong tho...or are Michelin's from NTB a better bet?

But help me out guys:

Goodyear and Michelin are OEM for many cars. they mainly run Eagles or Primacys. cant really go wrong either way as dealerships will offer both

So you think the Eagle RS-A is a good bet?

Depending on the type of driving you do, I'd recommend the rsa's, tripletreds, or eagle f1 for daily driving/spirited driving. Another sub brand of goodyear is the fierce instinct, which work well for spirited driving in particular in my opinion...I actually have them on my car. The quietest tire from goodyear for commuting would be the assurance comfort tread touring, second would be the assurance fuel max. To give a short answer, I'd recommend rsa's.
