Falken Ziex 512 - Excellent all round performance and ultra light.
Hankook has been getting some good reviews but I have no actual data on grip, tread wear, and weight.
Stay away from Kumho for certain and IMO most all Goodyear & Dunlop.

I've heard a lot of good things about the Avons but as of yet I haven't tried them.
My personal favorite is the Toyo T1-S. It's an absolute fabulous tire that stands up to the rigors of track abuse on my heavy Cobra. I highly recommend these.
My girlfriend ran the Toyo Proxes 4's and they were almost as good as the T1-S's. But a lot cheaper!
Good luck!

I'm looking to not spend more than like 125 a tire. Less if i can, that's why the fuzions always looked good.

IMO, it's worth the extra $5 apiece to give them a try. I can honestly say I don't think you'll be disappointed.
