Default 205/40/17 Kumho 712 for $56 each...would you get em?

Originally I want to get the Yokohama Avs ES100 but then I came across 205/40/17 Kumho 712 for $56 each at

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/...1=yes


Whats the better deal?

Yokohamas Avs ES100 for $84 each?

Yokohamas Parada Spec2 for $88 each?

Kumho ECSTA Supra 712 for $56 each?

Please give me your opinions asap...I need some tires quick.

I just recently (like tuesday) decided on the ES 100's over the 712s - it seems to have higher ratings in almost every category and i've noticed many people say above anything else that it's a quieter tire - plus it looks cool :D The 712s are hard to pass up at $56 though ($112 savings over yokes)

I can't tell you how my tires feel cause the shipping company (purolator) which guarenteed 2pm delivery TODAY for my installer LOST MY TIRES (No lie..i looked up the tracking number myself!)

I just wanted to vent - I realize I didn't give any help other than ("Hey! I've heard their quieter!")

I've had Kumho 712's, Falken Azenis and now running Yokohama ES100's. Of those 3 I think the ES100's are by far the best. My car is purely for getting me to and from work(no racing).

i thnk that most will agree that for dry traction, the azenis will give u the best grip, but **** for wet traction but at a very reasonable price (but **** for treadlife compared to some others.). the es100's have been gettin really good reviews from teh people who have gotten em, but for starving college students like myself... i'll have to compromise and get the kumhos. Which i am runnin on my stock 15's and i'm not too dissappointed with em. Sure its not the end all be all of tires, but a good bang for the buck.
