It depends on how inexpensive you are talking about. Kumho 712's are the cheapest I have seen and you can get them several different places like Discount Tire Corp or anyother place. Just call around and ask.

Like Lowboy said, Kumho 712's are bad azz and fairly inexpensive. In my opinion, they are the best bang for the buck.

Definately Kumho 712's! Go to www.tirerack.com and check out the tire specifications. They have them for many of the popular tires out there. One thing about the Kunho's is that they're very good on wet pavement. They're also fairly sticky for quicker launches and better braking.

I found some for $80 each actually. I bet there might even be better prices out there.
