I just got a pair of Falken as my front tires... I LOVE them! They just don't want to let the road go! doesn't matter what I do!
In a way, I'm an extreme driver and I tend to take turns at least 20mph faster than suggested speed and these tires never made me think twice about doing that!
Check them out... I got them from American Tire Company at $92/tire (http://www.tires.com)

other good brands that I trust are: Dunlop, Sumitomo, Yakohama, Pirelli
also check out http://www.tirerack.com they have them all

Good luck.
