It's about that time for me to start looking for a new set skins all around but I don't wanna spend too much money. What is a good all around tire that a lot of people use that wont hurt my pockets too bad?

I've been real happy with BFG's, they aren't the cheapest but they aren't real expensive either and they work great.

Which ones would you recommend? The Ecsta ASX, Ecsta AST, or the Ecsta 4X KU22, which is the best out of these 3?

OK, I will check these out as well, but I am looking for a popular tire that a lot of people use on the site that doesn't cost much but still has pretty good performance.

BF Goodrich tires have been popular tires for decades they run about $120.00 for most sizes that SN95s use.

I don't remember which Ecstas I used to get. Kumho is a pretty run of the mill tire. As far as individual models I would recommend you balance your decision between the looks, performance and price. They are not going to hook like sticky Nittos but they'll get you down the road in all seasons. Kumho is what I used when I was daily driving my 04 GT. Then i switched to Nitto 555s, then onto the BFG KDW NTs when I went to my 18" wheels but the car wasn't a DD anymore shortly after buying the Nittos.

I just purchased a set of Goodyear Eagle Sports.. So far they are great and still have not read a bad review yet.
