A local shop is having a sale on rubbers. Which of these would be the best/stickiest tire.
Probably going with 225/45/17 Choices are: Kumho Escta 711, 712, SPT, MX (summers) Escta ASX, AST (HP all seasons) Anyone have any personal experience? |

kumho ecsta asx's are your best deal for an inexpensive price. i work for tire discounters and i had to learn all about this crap. the asx has a higher speed rating than the ast and it's all season, asymetrical, so. but if you want to spend a little extra money go with the toyo proxe 4's. i personally would never buy a michellin because they have bead seating problems because of their soft rubber compound and i have kumho ast's on my mr2 and they kick ass. very good grip, in rain and dry. if you're lookin to save some money go with the ast or asx from kumho. just my opinion.
