Re: replacing tyres
Buy the best you can afford, I'd also recommend having the fitter supply the tyres.
Maxxi and continental are very decent alternatives to costly major brands.

Re: replacing tyres
Compare noise (dB), wet braking and rolling resistance against price.
GT Radial make a decent tyre for the money (PRC...) Falken are also worth a look in the middle price bracket (Japanese brand, mostly made in Thailand)
