What do you guys think is the best 18" summer tire for the money ($225 and under) that has the best grip and as much life as possible.

I like BFG KDW, Goodyear tires - Eagle F1 GS-D3 , and Yokohamas, but what about a tire called (NITTO).

I have 18 in Continental Extreme Contacts. I like them a lot. Good grip, not to much road noise.

Check Falken tires, I know it sounds ricer tires but you can find tires with a good grip and an excellent durability for the price. You could surely get those you need for abour 200$ US depending what size your looking for. I have 245/40/ZR18 front and 275/35/ZR18 back, ok ZR rating cause at that size they didn't made any other rating when I ordered them but the front ones cost me about 250$ CAN and the rear nearly 290$ CAN. They are quiet and have a good durability, my pal who's doing laping uses that brand and gets good tirewear/laps over other good brands. That'S a bang for the buck!
