Check out the Nitto Invo's. Look sweet, and have awesome dry and wet traction.

I'm running General Exclaim UHP. They're the cheapest high performance tire out there (about $95/each on TireRack) and are phenomenal for the price. Really great road feel, EXCELLENT in wet weather, and they grip the road like mad. Very long-lived too! My only gripe is that they have a softer sidewall than my old Toyo Proxes-4s, but seeing as they're 1/3 the price, I'm not really complaining! The softer sidewall would even be less noticeable on a 19" tire (I'm running 18s)

Toyo T1R's are amazing. I went on a canyon run the other day, flying down an extremly curvy canyon and not even a peep. The gripped like no bodys business. They get five star reviews off every site I looked at, and if you shop around, they arnt that expensive. Check out wheelwarehouse.com they will give you the cheepest quote period. Do what I did and take your quote to a local shop and talk them into matching it. You can even get a huge deal on wheels doing this. I got my 20's for 1850 delived and installed. Every other site said $2650 plus $100 shipping

Thanks guys u have been a big help, i really wanted the nitto invo but since my rims are going to be around 3500 its a little to much to get the invo, so i'm pretty sure that i'm going with the Falken Fk452 since there not that much but really good. thanks again
