Yoko Parada's all day, Not the longest lasting tyres but defo best for the money, Had them on my XR2 turbo in that size, had a drive of the car a few weeks back after selling it without the wheels, and the guy who bought it has fitted Hankooks. Spoilt the car completely.

Toyo T1R's i'd recommend... Excellent in both the wet and dry also very good on track, didn't over heat etc.
Ive heard alot of good things about parada's too, but they r sposed to be abit hairy in heavy rain!

I would recommend Toyo T1R's they're amazing tyres, really good grip wet or dry

Right now I've got Firestone SZ90 tyres on and they seem pretty good so far but I haven't really pushed them much.
