Good Front Tires

Well i was changing my oil yesterday are realized I have been driving on threads on my front tires. I tried ordering another set of Toyo T1R but i guess they have been discontinuned so my next step was Vredestein Sessanta but no one has them and I need a new set today. Anybody know a good set of tires that wont break the bank yet are decent and available? Thanks Guys
