Default Help with Tires

Need new tires for the slowmaro...would like to know what would be a good way to go.

I need (2) 315/35-17{rear} & (2) 275/40-17{front}

Im trying to find the best bang for my buck! I've already search all the main tire sites that i could find..Im just trying to see if ya'll know other places/brands i might not know of.

So fars its looking like Nitto 555's for the rears (drag radials or street). I would love some radials, but its already snowed 3 times up here, and i havent been able to drive in the snow up here with my tires period..& and tires are almost even with the wearbar indicators thingys. So i dont think redials will be much better, as far as in the snow. But they ARE cheaper. So...i dont know. And i havent really looked for front tires yet...

Looking to get them ASAP! Let me know what ya'll think..

I'll sell you a pair of 275/40/17 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS tires with near new tread (9/32), These cost $270 each new, I'd sell both for $250 Shipped. I can ship out tomorrow.

Let me know
Patrick.

EDIT:

Also, I know that Drag Radials are cheaper. But they also come with less tread, and don't last as long as street tires.
