I haven't had to change a tyre on my Civic yet, but when/if I need to, I'll put premium tyres on. When I can afford rims, I'll use premium, top of the range tyres. But when I needed tyre changes on my old Corsa, I fitted the cheapest ones I could get hold of, my spare was even illegal (because of the tread)! It also depends on what you use for your car for, personally I think run-flats are worth the investment.
