Default Opinions on my new tires?

I need a set of 4 275/40-17's for my 17x9.5" wheels I just bought. I want to keep the price fairly low and did some research and came down to these choices:

BFGoodrich G-Force Sport

Yokohama S.Drive

Yokohama AVS ES100

What are your opinions on what tires I should go with? Its my summer only daily driver so I drive in the rain but I also want a good performing tire that grips and gets at least "some" hooking when launching. The BFG's seem the best choice eh?

I have BFGoodrich's and I enjoy them very much. Though they are not the same type, I'm happy with the company. You can check mine out in my sig on my car domain. I didn't see the AVS's in your size. Just make sure you do your research on what you deside to do. I bought a set of Sumitomo's awhile back and they were ok, but then I bought my rims and BFGoodrich and the difference was amazing. I'm sure there will be many other opinions.

The BFG G-Force like you have are a bit out of my price range. The G-Force sports look like basically a cheaper version of the G-Force. The BFG's seem to be a better tire than the other Yokohamas though.

I agree, BFGoodrich. They were expensive, random people will ask me to do a burn out. I tell them that I can't my car isn't that fast, then they want to race and they get dusted
