It depends on what you consider reasonable, and what size you need. You also don't mention whether or not you will be using these tires in winter conditions.

The Yokohama AVS ES100 and Kumho Ecsta SPT are both very good tires, and reasonably priced. Either one is an excellent choice for most drivers who are interested in good performance at a reasonable price.

If you are willing to spend a little more than the ES100 and SPT cost, you can get the Toyo T1-R or Kumho Ecsta MX; both are good tires for a bit higher price. If you're willing to spend more money still, the Goodyear F1 GS-D3 is maybe the best all-around high-performance street tire on the road, but you might consider its price reasonable - and it's still priced less than other top tires.

The Toyo Proxes FZ4 and the Falken Ziex ZE-512 are both all season tires. Are you planning to use your tires in snow and/or frigid temperatures? If so, they might be good choices (but also consider the Kumho Ecsta ASX all-season tire). If you're not going to drive in snow or frigid cold, the ES100 and SPT offer much, much better performance.
