I had good luck getting Sumoto H4 tires last year from my Toyota service center for $45/each. They are rated low-rolling resistance and have worked out great.

The only problem has been the local service center didn't read the installation guidelines about placing the colored dots. Also, they failed to align the wheels to my standards. Regardless, the H4s have worked very nicely.
