Well spring crept up on me way too fast and I still don't have any tires for my new 18"s.

I need some recommendations on some 225/40/18s.
Now I need to keep a budget in mind cause I got the 3L project going on which took a chunk of money away from me. I was checking eBay for some but didn't turn up too many good ones. Mostly just cheap crap.
My E1's are running Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's, just so you can get an idea of what kind of tire I'm looking for.
I don't want anything like Ecsta 711's or similar tire. I want something good but nothing extremely expensive.
So what is everyones recommendations?
