Default New tire suggestion v.07TL

My passenger side rear tire got messed up somehow yesterday. originally thought about just getting it patched but i've already got close to 26k miles on them and figured this would be a good time to replace all four.

anyone have good suggestions for solid tires? i dont wanna go OEM replacement (the Bridgestones) b/c they're pretty expensive for what they do. the car is an '07 TL. thanks, ladies

I like my S-Drives that I put on the stock s2k wheels, but they're not really "all-season" o:

I'm a huge fan of the Sumitomo HZR-IIIs....they are highly recommended replacements in the S2000 community also for a high-performance summer tire and run aboiut $100 each....I don't know crap about all-seasons anymore though
