If you are so against the Azenis and you want kumho's get the ECSTA MX and tell me how they are. I have heard GREAT reviews so far. I've been wanting to try these out...but I can't stop buying azenis.

I have kuhmo's on my gsr blades and i absolutly hate them but thats just me, BFGoorich Euros are good for traction in all weather when it iced over here in TX i drove one ice and slush just fine with not many slips. Yokohoma's were good too when i had those, I'm gonna get some Azenis or just regular Faulken tires those they are great IMO..

I've driven on Falken Azenis and Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's in my Civic, and Potenza S-02's, Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's, Falken FK-451's on my s2k. In ice they all sucked. I haven't driven the Azenis in ice, but I've never heard anyone say anything but they suck. In wet, everything worked just fine as long as there were no puddles. In puddles my azenis always hydroplane, but all the others worked pretty well. The 711's or ES100's would probably work even better. Since you already have winter tires, I'd just go with the Azenis and drive really careful when it rains hard in the spring/summer/fall. The Azenis dry traction is by far the best, and the 200 treadwear seems to be a little low, as me and my friend abuse ours and his has lasted a year so far, but they're wearing thin now.
