I was very happy with the Sumitomo HTR H4s we put on our '96 850 before selling it. Only $49 each from tirerack.com. Another good choice are the Yoko Avid H4S, which we have on an Accord right now. The Yokos seem a little crisper handling, but also have noticeably higher road noise. A trade off.

For a $50 tire the Sumitomo is a real bargain.

One brand I will not get again are Continentals. The last set we had needed constant rebalancing. I didn't have that problem with the Sumitomo or Yokohama tires.
