Default best tires for the buck?

I have like most ppls in this forum, 19x8.5 and 19x9.5, my question is after reading through the forum, what is the best tires for this size? I am looking for traction in all types of weather, decent tread mileage as in how long they last, and under 1000 a set. Any suggestions?

check out the falken fk-451

245/35/19-f
maybe
285/35/19-r but usually 275/35/19-r

These tires are holding up well for me through all kinds of conditions. But I don't drive my car hard enough. I usually cruise.

I also seen Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position for under a grand a set. Those are some nice tires too!

good luck!

I have the Falkens as well and they seem to be a good tire for the price.

I like the Dunlop SP9000. I have a set on my Nismo wheels. Handle fantstic. My 18s were $909.00 installed at Discount Tire. This included Mounting, balancing, the chrome valve stem, and Sales Tax.
