Weve seen good results recommending the Continental ContiExtreme DWS to our customers who prefer a softer ride. Some people were disappointed when they wanted a more sporting tire, but that seems like a good fit for you. Not exactly cheap though at 213/ea on tirerack, plus shipping. Inexpensive for the quality of tire you get IMO. Sorting the list by price, Id probabl go with the Dunlop sport signatures or the Sp5000s, but they both have a shorter treadware rating. You also get what you pay for, you can see how much the reviews drop when going the inexpensive route. If this was a car you were trading in or planning on selling, Id say go cheap, but since you will be using it Id probably go with something decent.
