1990 honda civic wagon
around 40k miles
I live in florida so mainly dry but a little bit wet
I take corners quickly so performance is important lol
i bought these hankook ventus tires like 3 months ago they were discounted like 59$+11$ shipping each tire so i spent around 65$ per tire i think in total it was around 245$?

I got Khumo Ecstas for under 250 at tirerack.com, just wait until they have specials going on.
Yeah it'll be hard to find a good tire in that size for under $300... The best ones around that price are either the Falken 512s or the Kumho ASX. I don't think you'd get 40k miles out of either. The Kumho AST will probably last a little longer than the Falken. Both are great tires though. I have the Falken 512s on my daily driver and they are great all around. My brother has the Kumho ASX on his Accord and he loves them, great tire all around as well.
i like my bridgestone potenzas but you cant get 4 for 300 so im not much help
Check out www.tirerack.com. You can select your tire/wheel size and they give you a good idea of the tires available and the price.
Ziex ZE-912 > Ziex ZE-512.
i had kumho ecstas before i got the hankooks they were decent well i didnt buy them but the guy who had the car before me did AutoX and he used kumho ecstas so that may say something good about kumho tire quality, but the hankooks feel nice too
Kumho "Ecsta" is a line up of tires...
Kumho Ecsta MX
Kumho Ecsta XS
Kumho Ecsta SPT
Kumho Ecsta ASX
Kumho Ecsta V710
etc...
If the guy who autox'd was at all serious about it, then he may have had the Ecsta XS which are their best street tire. And yes, Kumho is a great brand. I've had the Kumho SPT's for daily driving and did a track day on them for fun, they held up surprisingly very well. I co-drove a buddies RSX for AutoX for half a season on his Kumho XS, very good tire. I know MANY others who run Kumho's and love them.
