Michelin, GoodYear, BF Goodrich, Toyo and Bridgestone are some of the brands I have had on my cars and happy with.

If you want to get technical, go to the http://www.tirerack.com or http://www.discounttires.com websites. Enter your car information and it will give you all kinds of information including customer surveys.

If you are a Costco member, that's another good place for tires. They happen to have a $60 off if you buy 4 Michelin or BF Goodrich Tires.

http://www.costco.com

The stock tire size on your car is 205/65R15.

This is probably the most common tire size out there, so you have a lot of options.

I don't know where you live, but if you live in the North like I do, I always get all-season tires (mostly rain here in Seattle, but we do get a few days of snow every year). If I still lived in Southern California, I would probably consider a more high-performance oriented tire as rains are infrequent and no snow.

We have Yokohama Avid TRZ tires on both of our cars (05 Toyota Camry and 97 Nissan Maxima), and are very happy with them. Please check them out.
