prob cos of abuse :P

really depends on how much you wanna spend.
can get 18's for as low as $130ea i think. but they will wear stupid and will be easy to puncture.

Federals are good, also Nexens and Nankangs

tyres are the only thing that holds to the road, if you not planing on burning them up spend the money as its well worth it, a good set can make a car handel better then one lowered with cheep as tyres, also depensd on the car and condition,
