Default Out of these choices...

I am in the process of buying 18x9.5 inch wheels all around. I plan on getting 275/35/18 tires on them. I get a deal and free shipping on the entire package if I get the tires with the wheels, and these are the choices in tires that I'd get, and was wondering what your opinions are on each of the tires, aka which you'd prefer.

It is my daily driver, but I like it to handle very well. I currently have the falkens in 245 form on 19s and they handle cornering very well but stink in straight line grip (mostly due to tire/wheel package I currently have.)

Here is the list:

Nexen N3000 (the cheapest of the bunch)

Hankook K104

Falken 452

Toyo PX4 (the most expensive of the bunch)

Thanks for your 2 cents!

Either that or I could just get the wheels online and then go to my local discount tire or something incase I get a flat I know I can get the same tire without waiting. Only thing is free shipping from the website if also bought with tires... but I'd only save 60 bucks overall...

This is about the max amount I'd spend... but the discount tire that is near me sells the BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KDW NT's for 230 each. Pricey, but I think I'm falling in love with those tires.

Sorry do not know anything about those tires. Look them up at Tire Rack and read the customer reviews.

Yeah I've been reading some reviews. Those BF Goodrich g-Force T/A's are really catching my eye at the moment, even though they are $$$.
