Need new tires

I need new tires. What is a good tire for under $180.00?

I currently have 225x40x18 Kumho's on TSW Bremma's. I was looking at the Falken GR Beta FK-451 for $137.99 and the Yokohama AVS ES100 for $179, both of these were found on NTB's website. Any sugguestions?

There are 76 tires in size 225/40/18 listed on www.tirerack.com. 37 of them between $72 and $179. The AVS ES100 is $129 each plus shipping. No Falkens listed but do some research for better prices.

Thank you for the response. Would it be possible for me to put a little wider tire on the rim that I have now without it affecting anything? I don't want to have to roll the fenders or have any rubbing. I would like to get possibly 235 mm all around or even 245 mm all around. What do you think.

I doubt it.
