Cheap tyres in that size and of decent quality in Europe are:

-â?¬80:

Vredestein T-trac 2
Hankook Kinergy
Continental CT22
Continental Conti-Contact
Toyo 330


â?¬160-220
Vredestein Sprint
Michelin XZX
Yokohama
Avon Cr11b

Other big makes can be over â?¬400

Cheaper makes can disappoint in quality

Not sure which of these are available at what prices in the US but a 
quick search through Google will help you out.
