Tires

What tires would you recommend? I just want something for summer that looks good, cheap, and will LAST and not wear out in 10000 miles.

245-40-18 is the size i need. I was looking at Nankang NSII, Zeno Strata, and Nexen N3000. Please give feedback

Nitto 555s are the best bang for your buck by far!

First off, i dont care about the brand name...as long as the tire works for what i want (as stated above). I just want the cheapest tire which will last the longest. I dont want a tire that will stick to the road like flies on shit, just something to get some life out of it and look decent too.

Secondly, where should this be posted?

They actually preferred the Nankang. They say it grips better and is lasting longer too. It's actually cheaper and I've found a set delivered to my door for 352.16 so i think i'm gonna get them since not many ppl are leaving feedback
