Sumitomo HTR+
Got a set of these put on yesterday. Man, what a joy. Super quiet, grippy, no jitters on road with deep truck ridges.
For a 234/45/z17, $120 each, including balancing.
I fully recommend if you are looking for a well-rounded (haha, pun intended) all-season tire at less than Michelin prices.

Re: Sumitomo HTR+
I *almost* got these for myself, but ended up with Toyo FZ-4's for no other reason than HTR+'s are HEAVY. For example, in 225/50-16 (the size I was looking for), HTR+'s are 28lbs, but the FZ-4's are only 20lbs (most other a/s tires are ~24lbs).
If I were to have a set of street-only a/s tires, I would have gotten the HTR+'s...but my tires will be dual-purpose for me (street and track) until I can afford a set of lightweight rims and max performance tires.
