Get some riken raptors or nankangs if you want cheap. $150-180 for a performance tire that is a foot wide doesn't sound too bad to me, and I'm poor. To me sumitomos are trash and they are 155 each..... Nittos are good tires and you said wear fast. So how fast do you think $80 dollar tires will wear?

I rock the nitto 555r's and prob have like 8k miles on em and they are looking awesome. Easily gonna get another 8k outta them and they hook great... I recommend em. Spend the extra few bucks and get the 555r's all around

Look into Dunlop Direzzas DZ101 tires. I have them on my car right now. Very good grip in dry and damp weather. Wet weather (heavy rain) you have to be careful.
