Jdmyard has some decent prices on hankook rs3s. I was going to buy some but I didn't want to shell out much for tyres that I'm not sure will last a long time

What size are you looking at?

John will be able to help you out with tyre selection.
No harm in giving him a call.

I would go straight to John. What size are your new rims? 18s?
John has a special on AD08s in that size, 265/35R18 AD08R ADVANS for $199ea.

You will not find a better street/race tyre nor a better person to fit.
