What are u looking for?
All season? High performance all-season, high performance summer?

THE tire to get for outright traction in a summer street tire is the Falken Azenis. Don't believe, check the SCCA solo II championships and the tires that are run w/ the winners.

Kumho Ecsta 712s are quite good. Not the grippiest things out there, but expensive and decent handlers. Noisy though. Without knowing more about your price range, tire size and expected uses its hard to recommend anything.

i got 15' mr7's as well.
i didnt want to spend a whole lot of money on rims at the moment so i just went that size as well.

i have dunlop sp5000. their high performance and pretty cheap

We got those on the SE-R and I don't notice too much noise, but then again I don't give a shit about road noise, hence the daytona :D

The ES 712s are a good bang for the buck

If you're looking for a summer tire the Dunlop FM901's are a pretty decent tire. Inexpensive and they have pretty good grip :)

The ES 712s are a good bang for the buck I don't really care about road noise, it was just an observation. Some people like quiet tires :dunno:
