Which Tires do you Perfer?

I'm looking at getting new wheels and I was wondering what everyone's opinion's are on which tires are quite good in all the categories, Performance, Handling, Smooth, etc. I don't really know much about which tires are considered "Good", and I know everyone has a different opinion so I was just wondering about any comments or opionions everyone had. Right now I'm looking at these tires:

1. Falken 452
2. Yokohama S. Drive
3. Toyo TR1s
4. Nitto
5. Other

If its other then let me know which tire and why.

Thanks.

I got Falkens, but probably the best on that list and most popular on the forum is the Nitto or Toyo
I heard good things about Yokohama

My previous tires were falken's. I liked them a lot too, but the Nitto's take the cake...

^^ Yeah I saw that, I kind of like the way the S. Drives threads look.

What about the Michelin Sport PS2? What does everyone think about that tire?
On tirerack.com there are tons of good reviews on that tire.

I was up at the shop one day and Sharif showed me a new Toyo. Can't remember what it was but they looks sweet and spec'd similar to the T1Rs.

I have been partial to the T1-R's for a while now but I did look in to most of these last time when I was due for a new set. I think the Toyo's are the least expensive from this list too.

Other. Goodyear F1-GSD3 or F1 Asymetric or Michelin PS2. Would not put any other tires on my car. The choices in the poll are all baller rim protectors, not serious performance tires.
