Which tire to go with?
Im gonna be running a non staggered setup 18x9.5 all the way around.
Gonna run 255/35/18 for the tires but im having a hard time deciding best bang for your buck. The car wont be driven in the snow or the rain so that's not a factor and it most likely wont be tracked. I do like to drive a bit spirited on the highway and such so im looking for a semi sporty tire but at the same time I'll be running negative 3-4 camber so tread wear is important as well.
Tell me what you think these are my choices that im stuck between (prices are per tire)
Toyo T1R ---------------------------------- Price $205.00 Tread wear 280
Yokohama S.drive ------------------------ Price $174.00 Tread wear 300
YokohamaAVID ENVigor (W)------------- Price $165.00 Tread wear 560
Dunlop Direzza DZ101-------------------- Price $175.00 Tread wear 300
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport--------Price $175.00 Tread wear 340
feel free to make a suggestion if you feel like there's something better

If you ask me I would go with the Hankook Ventus V12 at 179.00 each. They are a much better handling tire for the same kind of price. If I can help let me know.
The Hankook has a 280 treadwear rating so they are going to be comparable to the other performance tires. The Yokohama is an all season tire and will give you the best tread life but the worst handling.
