Cheap 15" tyre

Looking for a replacement which is cheap and has reasonable grip for the yaris! size is 195/55/15, any recommendations guys? would kumho ku31 be a good choice?

BTW, will there be a lot of diffrence if i replace them with 195/50/15? coz they r much cheaper

I went to Jax to get mine done about a month ago - For four new tyres with nitrogen, a balance and full wheel alignment I paid about $450. That was for the 14" YR tyre size (175/65/R14) though. The blokes from Jax here were great to deal with and stayed back late so I could pick my car up after work. The ones I picked up were BF Goodrich, and although cheap I found they drive really well!

Bob Jane/Bridgestone both quoted me well over $500 for the same thing.
