Default Kumho 712s

What other types of tires are comparable to Kumho Ecsta Supra 712s. As of now I'm set on getting Kumho 712s, but am open to other suggestions.

the kumho 711 get better dry traction then the 712's, falken azenis are great, the kumho MX's, the ES100 are very nice too!! any of these will be a good tire for the thr street (lots of grip)
grip from top to bottom: dry traction that is !
#1 Azenis / kumho MX's
#2 ES100
#3 711
# 4712

ES100s would be nice but It would be out of my price range.

es100 is pretty much in the same price range with the 712s, $10 difference

depends what u gonna use the car for. if its just every day driving to and from work.. no racing or spirted driving at all. get the ones that last the longest. if u decide to do any racing or fast driving stay away from the 712.. bottom line they suck and squeal like a little baby when being pushed. get yourself something nice like the Falken Azenis, Kumho MX, Yokohama AVS ES100, Kumho 711 (better than 712 in dry) or Potenza S0-3

i have had the sumitomo htr+'s and they are a very nice all season tire with "decent" grip. i now have the yoko avs es 100's and they are awesome. little raod noice, good grip, rim protector, but they do cost a little more than i would like. if you have the money get the es 100's. if not go with something that will last longer.
