Try Khumo's. Their performance is great, and their price is even better.
I have put them on many of my cars recently, and they've always impressed me.

I was looking more towards Yokahama, Toyo, and Nitto.

Thanx guys. My wheels came with ecsta supra's but they are bold. I think I might try them again. And I do need snow traction too. Look at my location.

You like my wheels but not the tires huh?? Believe me, the Kumhos are by far the best performance tire for the money! I have a good buddy with over 120 autox runs on his.. They last long and have good grip.. There are others that will grip more, but won't last as long.. Now if you want something thats good for snow, thats a whole different world.. the pirelli P7000 Super Sports arn't bad.. about 120 a tire..

Nitto's are junk, they just have great advertising..
