Default buying tires soon...need opinions

i was looking dunlop dz 101 i was told the were good tires and i read some reviews and i was pleased with them but some people began to complain and say the were noisy tires and began cupping and 10,000 miles.....just wanted to know if anyone has had first hand experience with them or could recommend me a good street tire with a good performance aspect too

i was also looking at the falken ziex 912 but also got very mixed reviews about it

The first question is, do you need all-season tires or summer tires? (The Falken Ziex ZE-912 is an all-season tire, the Dunlop Direzza DZ101 is a summer tire.) If you will use these tires in occasional snow or bitter cold (as well as warm weather), you need all-seasons. If you won't use them in snow/cold, either because you live in a warm climate or because you have other tires or another vehicle for winter, then you can get summer tires with their better performance in moderate to warm temperatures.

There are better summer tires out there than the DZ101 for about the same money, though - notably the Yokohama S.drive and Fuzion ZRi. Is this for an Integra? And what size wheels do you have - 14", 15", etc?
