a word on the Khumos... I had them on my last car, and while good for the first few months, the ride quality quickly deteriorated with spirited driving... by the end they were very harsh.

the Yoko AVS and Toyo Proxes are BAD in the rain... without any circumfrential groove, they will be hydro-plane city... also, yokohamas are the japanese equivalent to Pirellis... great handling, zero treadlife (from previous experience as well)
