18" Tires

I just picked up a set of rims, and now I have till spring to pick out some tires.
My "search" didn't come up with what I was looking for.
So, What kind of tires do you all have?, what do you think of them?, and how much did you pay?
Thanks.

i have a set of 18 inch falken torque 5's, i used a 225/40/zr18 yokohama AVS es100 tire, i love the tires, they are good in the rain, and on dry pavement. i plan on buying another 4 here in the spring, mine are getting bald. I got mine for $130 a tire from discount tire here in columbus ohio...i love these tires, they grip really nice, and i can take freeway offramps at like 70 mph now...(good for running from cops and stuff...). i abused mine and got like 22,ooo miles out of them, i was impressed...

i've been hearing good things, on this site and off, that the Fuzion's are really good for the money. they have gotten good reviews. i think this is what will be on my 17's next spring, unless i go 18's again. i dunno what to do anymore with this car.......

Sweet. Thanks guys, Has anyone tried Kumhho's 711's? I can get a smokin' deal on those, or maybe I should save-up all winter, and get some crazy $$ rubber just in time for spring.
