Default Tire Choices

I did a search, but couldnt find anything. Jsust wondering if you guys had any input here, I've had stockers, BFG EuroT/As, Nitto 450s, and Kuhmo 712s before. Pretty happy with the BFGs and Kuhmos, but my choices are different this time.
What do you guys think or have any feedback on these tire choices-
Falken Ziex (502 I beleive)
Kuhmo 711 ( Is the 711 still a performance/summer tire or is it an all season?)
and the Anezis RS. I like tis tire, but its out, as I think personally the treadwear and the rain/snow characteristics really suck.
So its between the Ziex and 711's.
Please give me some input. I want to stick!
Jim

you can't have a sticky summer tire that works for anything in winter. Try the Dunlop SP Sport 5000s, I hear they do well on dry and snow. Azenis, 712s, 711s and 450s are all for winter usage.

my concern is how he came up with nothing by searching! i searched "tire" by recent and got 34 matches.. re-searched by archive and found 366 matches! when i started searching by manufacturer's names (kuhmo, falken, etc) i found plenty of reading about each.. follow my advanced search techniques and look a little harder next time.. yes, i know i'm an *** too..

[edit]also check out tire rack and discount, they've got some decent reviews there[/edit]
