Anyone got any suggestions for mid range tyres, i was looking at hankook RS-3s, from JDM yard the size i want are just over 300 each, 255/35/18 but would rather get some locally if price works out well.

I would like to spend about $250 a tyre tbh but can stretch if its worth it.

Just got a set of the new Bridgestone RE003 have to say I had hankooks before these and they leave them for dead they cost 175 each for 215 45 17 from Bridgestone so id say the size your after will fit in your budget
