    I am getting ready to put on my winter tires (General Grabber AT2) and am thinking the stock tires will need to be replaced next summer. What tires do folks like for summer (not much off road, good on wet roads, etc. - the stock tires are absolutely terrible on wet roads). Looking for good value and long tread life.

    I agree with these guys. Although you'll probably like them so much you'll wanna run them year round

    So everyone like the defenders.......I don't like the price tag (bit out of my budget). Any other options. Like to be under $200.
