Next set of tires...what do you guys recommend?

So, I currently have 5300 miles on my car, tires are looking great, since i dont drive hard at all. but i just dropped my car, so now i am sure the tire wear will go higher. I am just trying to see how long my next set of tires will last me. I am mostly worried about tire wear since i dont drive the car hard at all, so what kind of tires do you think I should go with, that will be good enough on the performance side, and also give me a lot of miles out of them. And of course i want these new tires to look just as good as the stock one's (low profile) or whatever its called. Thanks in advance!

Tires vs Suspension.........?

I suppose after you lowered your G you had the alignment checked. By doing
so you need to spend what ever it takes to bring it back to factory specs.
It's kinda silly to keep buying tires rather than getting the correct pieces for
your suspension. And when your set to specs buy Michelins tires, you'll
never have a worry about tires!
