TIRES 225/45 z R17" need a good cheap place to buy them. help anyone

The treads i have on my car right now are about though. I went to my favorite tire shop today to see what i could afford and man that's alot o cash.
He's got some Sumitomo's for $108 a piece, and that's ok. But i want to know of more options. Like Falkin, Yokohama, Kumho.

225/45z R17" that's the size. I'd like em to be Z rated and have 200 treadwear or higher. I go though tires way too fast to have anything under.

thanks: Rich

TireRack is where I got my Yokohama AVS ES100's. Way cheaper than any tire store(even including shipping and installation).

The Sumitomo HTR series are slighter cheaper ($85/each) than the Yokohamas but are still a good tire. All season or otherwise. I had them on my first WRX.
