Default Tire brand recommendation.

greetings everyone.
i need to replace two front tires. they are 245 35 19 (93w). i would need two but not sure what brand of tire would be a good route.
i dont want to spend a fortune as they are on only for the warm months but def. will want something decent.
so far ive seen nittos for 156 ea. in the size i need online.. is this a good tire? I always thought nitto were good brand but maybe there is some other brand of tire someone could recommend..? the current tires are no longer being made as they are a general tires exclaim uhp.

thanks for your time.

It kind of depends if you want run flats, all season or do the winter switch. My preference is the all season conti's DWS.

tirerack.com is a great resource for reviews and pricing...

as far as "bang for your buck" tire brands...

hankook v12's or vredestein ultrac sessenta or vredestein vorti's is worth some research..I have a feeling my next set of tires will be one of these...
