i hate to say it but best summer tires and "CHEAP" do not go together at all.
$125/tire would put you into the economy low profile sector of the market. while there are some decent tires in there, non of them can even compare with the top summer tires on the market.
if you are looking for great tire at a good price, the Falken FK-451s are hard to top
they fall between the Kumho 712s and the Kumho MX and the 451s are a general "all-round" better tire than either.
i personally don't see the point of putting anything less than a ultra high performance tire or Max performance tire on a large diameter wheel or in a low-profile application. economy tires are what you put on the stockers that came with your car! ;)
