I bought this guitar like 3 years ago, HImor brand, made in China, for like $225. I like it quite a bit. One downside though is that the tuners suck, too much play in them. What can you recommend as a replacement?

I've used both Gotoh and Grover aftermarket tuners and they're both going strong 10+ years on. No problems to report with either brand.
Different brands of guitars use different hole sizes for the tuning peg, so make sure you measure the diameter of the peg hole in your headstock before you order to make sure you're getting ones that will fit your guitar.
