I know some people don't like Nittos either... Kensan

But I've just had such a good experience with them, I can't help but recommend them.

I wish I could run true performance tires daily

I know the feeling. I purchased a used set of rears for budget reasons and to even out my front/rear replacement schedule. It put me right back on track to get all four replaced at the same time.

Having a budget for tires is fine. Getting cheap tires because you can't afford quality tires is not. You can get a good quality set of tires for a sport package Z for ~$1K. If that's too much, maybe you can't afford this car.
