Default Tires?

I getting ready to order me some Shelby Razers to go on my Satin Silver in Anthrocite and I was wondering what kind of tire in your oppion is the best bang for your buck. I am taking treadwear, grip, wet traction, anything you can think to comment on plus price. Also looking for the right size of tire. I want something as wide as possible on them. I am ordering them in 18's

I picked up some Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-2 at tirerack.com for $396. Plus there is a $50 rebate on them.

Kumho Ecsta SPT. I love mine. Summer tire. Very good grip! Excellent in the rain. Not noisy. I paid $180/each for mine. 285/19's

I have sumitomo HTRZ II's and I got them for 100 a tire in 275/40/18 and I have so far got around 24k out of them with a bit of hard driving. Rain driving is good too but dry traction is awesome!

I am running 255/45/18 Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercars, but they are cupping really bad. All of the tread is gone in the center.

I was considering ordering the 255/45/18 Sumitomo HTRZ II's from American Muscle. There are a lot of cheap tires with nice tread patterns. Hard to decide.
