Default Toyo or Kumho

I'm in the market for some new rims and itres, I was wondering what tires I should get. The Packages that are available are Toyo Proxes FZ4 and Kumho 712's. Which would you recommend? Or just get the rims with ____ tires?
This will manly be used for street.

How much are you guys paying for the Kuhmo's? I got a wholesale account with Discount Tire Direct, and can get them for about $50-$80/each depending on size (15's-start at about $50, 17's-start at about $70)

depending on the size you are looking for, try tirerack.com. they have some pretty comparable prices. the size that i was looking for was 195/55R15 and those are $64 each.
