Need some tires.. opinions?

I'm on sort of a low budget, and I need to buy some 205/50/15 summer tires for my new rims. Any opinions as to what a good summer tire is for a fairly low budget? Best place to go and get them from?

I've just put on a set of Fuzion ZRI's.. I'm really impressed with them so far. Fuzion is Bridgestone's sport compact/tuner line. I was going to go for another set of Falken 512's but these have stiffer sidewalls, and far better dry traction, wet traction is easily as good at the 512's (which was great, puddles and standing water with no pull on the wheel). I picked mine up from Tires23.com Great prices, and service.
