Default what tires to buy....
I was wondering what tires are most of you guys using? I need to get tires soon and just want street tires and i don't drive in the rain, what tires won't cost me a ton, and still get the performance I want?

If its not your DD and you dont drive it in nasty weather than just go with a set of DR's.
