Question Tire Help

I've got an 02 HX with stock 14" alloys. I've been buying the cheap *** tires at discount for a while now, but I keep having to take them to be balanced cuz the way i drive. So i want to upgrade to a hi performance tire that will give me nice traction as well as life... any suggestions?

High performance tires will give you more traction but with any high performance tire, you trade off the life of the tire because of softer compounds in tires that help stick to the road.
