Im using some NANKANG NS-2 that came with the car when I bought it.
I found this review about those tires..

These tyres are a genuine false economy!! They have decent grip in both wet and dry, but tyre noise got so bad I had 2 wheel bearings replaced before realosing it was the TYRES. Replaced with Pirelli P6000s and massive difference and not that much more expensive!


and in that same forum somone posted this..

I'm very satisfied with my NS2. I've used my first set for 4 years now, and will definitely consider buying them again, when it's time. They are silent running, and gives a precise feeling.

Enough to drive anyone crazy!

Some stores let you try the tires before buying and that is the best way to go..
