You should be able to get excellent tyres for the standard wheels with that budget.

Yokohama C-drives.... for the stock 185/60 (wateva it is) i think its $120 each. I run 195/60 R14 and they are $135ea.

Excellent in the dry and just as good in the wet!
Just run em in for 600km before getting excited.
