no man, look into fuzion zri tires.

they cost me under 70 bucks a tire, and are amazing. they are an offshoot of bridgestone aimed at the tuner crowd.

the Fuzion ZRi's on a mustang are absolutely horrible. My friend has them on his 01 GT and he can't grip at all on a take off... however, he does have quit a bit of power coming out of that V8 beast. Maybe they would do better on a light import.

The Kumho's are among the cheapest you can find. Even 205/40/17's are going from $50-65 per wheel

I didn't realize he was looking for stock size.

Khumo's are nice but seem to wear quickly. I've got a Falken 512 i think it is on mine? WOW. Very nice tire.

I agree with redz! I have the Falken ZE-512s. $66 bucks for a 195/55/15 which is stock. They grip very well! 360 Treadwear rating and very quiet tire. Falken ZE-512s
