If you have to come in under $120 a piece I think these are a good choice. With winter coming up you might want all seasons, though I'm not sure about Florida you could probably get away with summer tires year round?
Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 (even has evo in the name?) Only $115 a piece with a $50 rebate on purchase of 4

Traction A, temp A, Z speed rated. They look like they might do good in the rain.
I currently run Falken RT 615's in 255/40/17 and I do love them. I was planning on maybe trying out some of the Nitto NT05's instead when they wear out based on what I've read on here.

I'm not sure if these are the same, but I have the KDW2, also known as the KDW NT, I think? They have a tribal looking pattern for the tread design.
The positives are they look pretty nice, they were cheap, and the rubber is lasting forever compared to stock. Also, they are mid-pack in comparisons.
The negatives are they are mid-pack in comparisons, they are about as loud as the mud-terrains I drive on my truck, the gas mileage takes a substantial hit, and the rubber is lasting forever so I haven't tried newer tires!
I have heard great things about the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 Super Championship Edition Turbo Alphas, and will likely try them as soon as I can run these BFGs into the ground! I hear they are close to the star specs in the dry, but have a tad softer sidewall, but they are cheaper, run better in the wet, and are a bit quieter.

Yup, I'd look at the Hankook V12 EVO, or Sumitomo HTRZ III.
