Personally I would just save up to put on some proper tires as they WILL positively affect the driving experience in almost every way. Better acceleration, grip through corners and braking are all advanced with a good rubber choice.
Why sell good rubber for dirt cheap when you can burn them up yourself. I'm gonna swap them onto my 17x8s when I get them powdercoated
