best tire for the price

Im looking for tires for my Maxima, i have 17 x 8" rims right now im looking for some good tires that will hold up.
I had Nitto 555's 235 45 17's on it before and I loved them alot
I think i got 40K miles on them. Now i have 235 40 17's Yoko somethigns and they suck dick. They are alittle to
low for my tastes and they dont handle as well.

So as it stands im looking for something right around 235 to 245 width at a 45 height.

Nitto 455s are the suck, but 555s are good. My friend has gotten 1.9 60' times on his 02 gt with em. Which Yokos did you have? I have the ES100s and they were way better than the kumhos

I just got the new Falken Ziex ZE-512's...I fucking love them..they're cheap and they hook up great..Z-rated, A traction, A treadwear...ride nice too...just an overall great tire (also ranked #1 in consumers digest high-performance tire comparison)
