Best Bang for Your Buck....

![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I am wondering what everyone believes to be the Best Bang for Your Buck as far as tires go.
I am lowered on 18's with no camber correction equipment as of yet. I plan on getting it done now that I see how fast I'm burning through tires (about 8 thousand miles
). My front tires are ready to come off for sure and the rears are soon to follow.
Anyway, for the average driver. No track time. No severe winters. Just a general all season, relatively, quiet, longer lasting tire that doesn't hurt the checkbook too bad. Since I'll be changing them soon anyway due to the camber issue that I'll be correcting.
Fronts: 225/40R-18
Rears: 255/35R-18
Any input and opinions welcome.

Here is a hint: Michelin Pilot A/S 20-30K miles easy. The A/S Plus 40-45K.

Im not seeing the 255/ 35R-18 in that model, only the A/S plus and they are $351 per tire. I do agree that 400 treadwear for the A/S and 500 for the A/S plus is better than the 280 I have on now with the TOYO's though. Thanks for your response. I'm thinking with those numbers these might win when I get the camber kits installed.

I would if I could. Christmas smashed me this year. Im gonna get it done in the next few months. However, I need tires now. 'Band-Aid' tires if you will.
Im thinking Kumho's should get me through til summer.
I think I'm gonna give these a shot when I do it:

Went with Kumho Ecsta SPT. Seemed like a good tire, with good reviews.
I just need something to put on NOW.
Then in the future when I get the camber issue corrected I'll step back in to some more sticky, classy shoes.![drive](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/driving.gif)
