Tire suggestions, cheaper to more expensive:

185/60/14:
Yokohama A509               ~$60***********My recomendation
Dunlop A40		    ~$70 
Yoko AVS intermediate       ~$78
Dunlop A60                  ~$85
Bridgestone RE-71           ~$92
BFG Comp TAR1		    ~$100 (racing tire)
Yokohama A008 RSII          ~$102 (racing tire)

195/55/14:
Dunlop SP-4000              ~$100
Dunlop SP-8000              ~$110**********My recommendation

205/55/14
Dunlop SP-8000              ~$110
BFG Comp TAR1		    ~$112 (racing tire)
Yokohama A008 RSII          ~$112 (racing tire)

These are all good tires, some are great.   The Yoko A509 is one of the best
deals.  Personally, I think its foolish to skimp on the only thing touching
the road on your car, I have the Dunlop SP-8000 in 195/55/14, I'll replace
them with the same thing when they wear out.
