I had the falkens and they were great tires. Also considered the yoko's when I was buying the falkens but they weren't really popular (not enough reviews). I've heard some good and bad about the nittos.

All in all, I'd say all 3 are good choices. Just go with whichever is cheapest.

Also it depends on what you want out of them.

-Do you go on mountain runs?
-Are you planning on driving like a grandpa?
-What kind of climate do you live in?

look at the nitto neo gen's. also take a peek at some other tires and brands, like the bridgestone potenza 960's or maybe the P zero nero's.

I have Yokohama S. Drives on mine. Run great, and provide quite a bit of grip over what the factory gave me.

I agree with him, I have the Neo-Gens, and I love them! I have heard alot of good things about the 960's
Nitto is coming out with a new tire I believe this month..
