Default I wanna step up a little bit Tire wise

I've been running the Yokohama Parada Spec-2's for close to 2 years now, and i wanna step it up after this set goes out. What tires would you all recommend.

Tito, don't post in my thread.

How much do you want to spend? I got a really good deal on the tires that I run and they're pretty good for the dough.

If price is an object:
After some research, I bought Firestone Fuzion ZRI tires for my car a few weeks back, so far they are great, have a high treadwear, great traction ratings and the price is right.

If money is no matter:
Michelin Pilot Sport, hands down.

2. Continental ContiSportContact 2
3. Yokohama Advan Neova AD07
4. Michelin Pilot Sport PS2
