Mitsubishi Carisma 

Needed a cheap set for summer and honestly, I dont see much difference compared to the pricier Bridgestones I had before. 

Quiet, smooth and they stick to the road. Even in the rain, they hold their own. If you are looking for something budget friendly that still delivers, these are a solid choice. 

Definitely recommend
