Default Between these two...

I have the Kuhmo MXs currently (whats left of them anyway).


I am trying to decide between the MXs (which I like but have an ugly sidewall)...






...and the Yokohama AVS ES100s.






Opinions in these two??

Neither if you do a lot of spirited drives.

You're going to need to test tires to see which is best for you. HighrpmEK doesn't like either but I love the ES100s. And yes I've had different tires, I work for a wheel/tire retailer so I've tested several. The ES100 is an excellent tire for the money.

The MX runs circles around the ES100's. Those tires are in two entirely different classes of rubber. The ES100's are two levels down from the MX on Tire Rack's website.
