With all due respect to Kumho and simul8guy, I had the above mentioned Kumho's and I was very displeased with them. They did not wear correctly (I keep my tires alligned and balanced so I know car care was not the issue) and the tires have very thin sidewalls (I used a W rating). From my expierance, I cannot get more than 20K out of a set of tires and I have 111K on the car so this theory has been tested amoung different brands. Yoko's and Conti's are both great choices but they can be a bit pricy. I've a low budget since I'm a college student so I low balled my last set of tires which were Nexum. It's a cheap Korean tire I know, but they ride decently smooth and tire wear is simular to the other brands. I If you have the extra money, go with Conti's or Yoko's. I like to go with at least a W rating because I like thicker sidewalls.
