Stay away from the Kumho Ecsta Supras!!! I have the 235/40/17's on my SE and hate the living h-e-doublehockeysticks out of them. They have a cool looking tread pattern, but the center channel is overly huge for performance. This makes them slide in the turns like a mofo, have absolutely [b]NO straight line traction, suck in the wet, and aren't worth a 50% discounted price IMO.
The 205/60/15 Firestone Winterfire snow tires I run have better handling and straight line than those things do. :rolleyes:

I quite like mine and auto-x with a fellow CEG'r that uses them very well.
But tirerack also has Dunlop Sport W-10's for like $79 IIRC. It has a very agressive pattern FWIW.
