JVT, looking at the respective wear ratings of 280 vs. 400 means the Kuhmos last .7 as long as the RE950 in theory. Multiplying .7 by the $133 price yields a Kuhmo price of $93 to offer the same value wear-wise which means at $92 they cost about the same. But when you add $10 shipping to each tire it changes to $143 vs. $103 which shifts more in the RE950's favor.
But if you don't like the cheaper A520, the RE730 is only $3 more per tire than the RE950 and they were nearly .66 quicker on the 30 second course which means 1.32 on a minute course which is an eternity in autocross/road racing and the like.
If you want Potenza's get the RE730!!
