The best Cheap 15" tire???

So has anyone else found a good cheap (under $55 ea) all season tire for the 2.5TS or outback sport?

I drove the stock RE92 tires last winter, and I'd rather drive my old 2WD saturn in the snow than to use those tires again. Complete junk.

Unfortunately, good and cheap don't really mix when it comes tires (especially snow tires)
Sorry I couldn't have been of more service.

You didn't mention what you drive (OBS or TS) and so I assume that you are looking for a 195/60/15H, so keep that in mind while you are shopping.

I drive a 2.5TS. Thanks for the info. I'm amazed that the Bridestone Touranza tires are so good, yet the potenzas suck so bad.

I'm really tempted by those Goodyear assurance triple tread tires. A little pricey tho.

That is kinda like saying 'I'm amazed that the Legacy Turbo is so good, yet the Justy sucks so bad' - same brand, but different intended uses. Go to TireRack's site & look up Potenza S-03s, 750s & 950s (<-what I run).
