Kumho Ecstas are a good buy. Some people like Yokohama ES100s. It would be helpful if you stated what type of weather conditions you need the tires for. Do you ever track your car? How hard do you push your car? Some people need an all-weather tire, etc.. Would you sacrifice some handling for a lower price? How important is treadwear? Also, a price range would be nice.

You might want to check the Tire Rack Forum. There are tons of topics on this.

After trying out several brands during the first 93k miles, I have gone back to the OEM S02's. There is just not a tire that provides the same level of dry grip, less sidewall flex, and overall handling.

I go through so many S02's that I have a local Discount Tire stocking OEM S02's just for me and the other HouStooks.

I have to agree onthe Yokahama Paradas. They may be a bit pricey, but they aure in the hell last a long time!!
