What is your budget? You can spend $100/tire and do fine, or spend $350. Do you want a summer perf tire or an All Season tire?

I think you should get some Sumitomo HTR Z III's and tell me how you like'em. I am thinking about either getting thoes or BFG KDW-2's, I don't have any personal experience with either. Other than that I would go to tirerack.com so you can look at a lot of different tires and options and find some you like.

Nitto's, Toyo's, BFG's (G-Force Sport are probably the best tire for the buck for what you're looking for)

Absolutely agree, along with the A/S Exalto's. I didn't mention them because of the money issue. Anyway's, I'm getting the Exalto's for my Nissan when it comes time.

the goodyears are a bit cheaper then the A/S but perform just as well. i still say F1 all seasons best z rated all season tire and they are 20-40 dollars cheaper than the A/S.
