I'm going to be getting some new tires soon and I thought I would check what you guys are running on. I have Kumho Ecsta 711 now, they where on there when I got the car over a year ago. Over all I would say I'm pretty happy with them but havent had any other tires to compare them to.
I'm looking into the Kumho Ecsta ASX now, any opinion's on these? How bout the Yokohama YK520 and AVID V4S? That's pretty much the 3 I have it narrowed down to but I'm open to suggestions. I'm looking for a all season tire with good performance/handling, and tread life. Also they will be going on the stock 17's.

If it dosent snow where you live get the federal 959's (595's?)
I slide my Eclipse on a regular basis and these things dont wanna slide at all.
Have had them for over a year and the tread is at least 60% left. No flat spots either. Dont even squeel in the dry.

I have Fusion ZRI in the front and Yokohamas Avis T4 in the rear that I put up front in the winter. The ZRI's are alright, could grip a little more in the wet, but all in all they are alright. When I get my rims (anyone got 2 grand laying around for rims and tires for me? Thought not) I am gonna put BFG Eagle F1's 235/35/19 on them and they will be pimp shit.

We dont get much, it might snow or ice 1-4 times a year but I do drive my Eclipse to go snowboarding sometimes.
I will have alook at them, I haven't heard of them before.
