I've done soooooooo much reading up on tyres and still can't acertain which is the most suitable out of those I have available to me. The rims are Work GS1, 20 x 9.5 & 20 x 10.5 and the sizes I'm after are 255/30/20 & 285/30/20. My brand options are:

1. Michelin PS2 @ $3000 ( High wear on our bitumen roads apparently)
2. Yokohama advan sport v103 @ $2800 ( again low wear rating of 180)
3. Hankook Ventus V12 evo @ $2500
4. Falken FK452 @ $2000
5. Kumho KU19 (front) & KU31 (rear) cheapies @ $1550

I'm going to occasionally track my car BUT NOT ON ANY OF THESE. I'll keep my 18's for that. What I want is a tyre that is going to be reasonably comfortable & quiet but still perform well for the odd spirited weekend drive. We don't get snow, Our winters are usually pretty short on rain and the temp rarely gets below 18º Celcius (65ºF) so a Summer tyre should be fine all year round. So to the Q.

1. Which of the above would be the best contenders?
2. The Yokohama & Falken I could buy tomorrow but are worlds apart in cost. Are they worlds apart in performance & road noise, would the Falken suffice and save me a packet?

I'm a procrastinator by nature and need some guidance so I can make an informed descision and put this one to bed.........HELP.
P.S. I intend going twin turbo in the not too distant future too so need to factor that in.

 

There's also Nitto Invo which I can only import from O/S but given their price is reasonable I would consider them an option if they are up there with the quality.

 

f**k it, doesn't matter. I'll get the Yokies

 

I have the same size tires (but 35 profile) but Nitto Invo, I love these tires I got all four for $960 shipped brand new plus you can rotate them

 

Invo look the goods and all the reports are very favourable but not available here in Oz. I'd have to buy them on-line and the shipping time could be the downfall.
