Default I need new tires...

...but I don't know what tires are good...I'm not looking for some really high performance ones though, cheap but high quality ones. I took it in for an oil change and the guy told me I need new tires soon. =[ I see they are like ~150 each...like the goodyear f1 all season, theres a $50 rebate onthat if you buy all 4, but that still comes up to be 550...

BFG Goodrich G-Force Sports are good all around tires. Costco should have them.

Otherwise get some Falkens.

It was mentioned above....If you're looking for decent performance that wont leave your wallet looking like a good place for a spider to make a web.... I'd go with the Kumho ASX's. Good overall performance for the buck. I had a set on my other tC (06) for less than a benjamin a piece.
