Default Tyre recommendation not Subaru

Just about to order some tyres for the girlfriends focus 11 plate,
I was looking at theses for £54 a corner: Nexen N'Blue HD Plus 215/55 R16 93 V
Has anyone got any recommendations for similar price?

Cheers
Rich

Just ordered Goodyear for my old banger, they were 16's too. Costco are doing a deal which was cheaper than Camskill or Blackcircles.

About £210 including fitting.

I ended up going for these:

£181.12 fitted at the house.
No idea what they're going to be like but the usual ditch finders for around the same price have E wet rating,these are B rated so I'm hopeful.
