    Go to discount tire direct. Choose by brand, then size. Read reviews.

    Noisy and not good in wet weather? Fml.

    Read and research though.

    OP didn't list tire criteria and links don't work. Under assumption of a summer-tire-only for staggered ZHP setup, I went to tirerack and a set of 4 tires range from about $715 to $1450. huge $ range. The Hankook Ventus V12 and Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec tested well in a Car and Driver comparison from a couple years ago.

    I have General Max UHP summer tires and chose them for wet/dry compromise and budget. They perform very well IMO. Looks like these Generals are NLA, at least not listed on tirerack. Don't know if I doubled my costs and went with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 ZP at $1450 that improvements would be that much better. Think I'd rather spend the $ difference on driver schools.

    OP should figure what performance envelope he's looking for and budget. That usually narrows things down quickly.

    2k answer a few Q's for us.

    1. what sizing do you want?
    2. what genre (summer or A/S)?
    3. do you run winter tires (because if not A/S is a pretty obvious choice in VT)?
    4. what is your budget?
    5. do you track/auto x?

    based on those we can help you find something.
