The durun's are under $80. Check the list for torontojdm int he vendors section. I paid less then $70 per tire, installed, tax-in! At torontoJDM.

I recommend the durun's. They perform well beyond my expectations for such a low-cost tire. They are better then my falken ZE512's I used to have. The 912's are similar to the 512's. The 502's are junk from what I've heard.

Again I recommend the durun's. They're awesome in the dry, and REALLY good in the wet, and should last longer then the other tires on your list.

they list the durans at $65.66 a tire and $60 to install them so it would bring the total up to $80.66 a tire. Maybe they raised the prices

DO NOT GET TRIANGLE. I've heard nothing but bad things about them ( shifting belts, peeling threads, sidewall bulge, etc). Never used em before, prob never will.

That being said if you do get triangle mayn u'll get lucky...
