Best Tires for 18" HFP

Sorry for the noob question, but I needed some input from you guys as to what are the best tires for the 18" HFP's? These will go on my 06 Si. Thanks in advance.

I bought Falken 451's from Discount Tire, ran me like $600 with the replacement certs on em. I've been really happy with them.

Are you looking for summer tires or all-season?

I've got Yoko Prada SP2 and they handle really nice. I think my next tires will be the KDWs. I heard those are really nice.

How good are the tires that come with the 18" HFP wheels from Honda? I think they're the Dunlop SP Sport... 215/40/18

I got the Dunlop FM901 tires along with my 18" HFP wheels when I took delivery on my Si. Their dry grip is "OK" at best, and their wet grip ain't too good.

Yeah, I cause I was thinking of just contacting '06Fg2' on here, he's selling his on the For Sale: Wheel & Tire section. I might just get them off his hands...

Eagle F1 Summer Tires!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check reviews. They give you the best overall performance on dry and wet surfaces.
