    I have Falken ZIEX ZE912, decent tire with good reviews. Looks to be anywhere from 80.00-100.00+ each.

    I've been running kumho's on my e34, e46,rav4 and now on my f150, comparable to a bargain basement michelin pilot on my e34... read the reviews on tirerack.com

    Edit: no snow where i live and not much raing although they were fine in the flooding we had a month or so ago

    The Nexen on my E32 I will replace this month against NANKANG XR611 225/60R15 96V, a online shop here in Japan is selling them for abt $50 / piece at the moment. Also available in the US for less than $60.
    I have also Nankang on my E36 M3 since summer, replaced the old Pirelli which were much more expensive.

    ecsta lx platinum on the e34, they had a 80 dollar rebate also so they ended up being something like 76.00 each. Every few months kumho has a mail in rebate

    Nice to see the Real Crew is still around...thanks everyone.
    I had a hard time finiding a choice in So. Calif so it was between the Nexen and Ohtsu FP7000 (Falken Brand)

    I went with the Othsu for $270
    I will let you know

    P.S Talked with Gayle on Saturday all is well and her Life is totally changed...she is being Mature..I told that being mature doesn't sound like much Fun
