Best TIRES...?

I found another good tire for a car (my SVX)....and again it disappears...? It either went out of business...or size died...??? Well...I ran Avon Tech M500's with good success...245 45 16 (ZR)...Supposedly made by Bridgestone...?

The thing that's so disturbing is that my old Yokohamas I thot I liked so much proved to be so noisey...when I got the Avons! [They're quiet!] ...that once I replaced a rear bearing from that noise! I realized that...after I got the quiet Avons...I was considering replacing the other rear bearing (since replacing the first didn't get rid of the "bearing" noise!...ha!).

Is there a quiet...inexpensive...good tracking...TIRE? Please advise me y'all.. .

THANKS...

BTW...I like an "oversized" tire ...but I guess I can return to 225 50 16 if u got a good one! Thanks!
