The ones with tread......

....in the right size.

In general, check the traction and wear ratings for grip. AA best for traction. A lower wear rating means softer, stickier tire for performance driving with a higher speed rating, but more road noise and they don't last as long. Higher wear rating gives you a harder tire for a more comfortable drive, lower on the performance scale, lower speed ratings, longer lasting and less road noise.

Pick the one that suits you best in your budget, preferably not Michelin or Bridgestone (personal reasons).

Personally, I get better performance, ride and wear from the Kumho tires than I did from the Bridgestones that came with it.
