Cheap non-RFT tire recommendations

I'm looking to buy cheap tires (under $150 per corner) to replace on stock rims before I get the after market wheels.
Any recommendations on non-RFT with all season capability or regular summer performance tires would be appreciated.

Also, is there any wearing difference between all-seaon and performance tires? I would like to get as much miles as possible.

It's going on 186 style rims, so 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 are the sizes.
Thanks!

obviously performance will wear out quicker, i mean 2 to 3 times quicker perhaps.

as far as pricing goes, ive no idea what you can get for 150 in your market for all season tyre. I run dedicated winter and summer wheels as we have bad winters.

hankook ventus v12, the rears are more than 150 but if you average over all 4, it comes out to 140/tire. plus there's a $50 rebate from factory. try discount tire, if you order online you can also get 10% cashback via bing.com
