Everyone has them, I'm currently running on the Kumho AXS, and they are pretty decent for under $80 each.

im sure orionsuperkaokenzygarian's knowledge is extensive on tires.
i forget for the moment what company makes avon, or is the parent company or whatever, but they are supposedly pretty nice.

for the money though, theres just as good, or better, and more readily available.
also, the kumho 712 has been replaced by the ecsta spt.

I'm sure you are a fucking dumbass who cant tell someone who uses google from someone who doesnt. Tell me, does it hurt to be stupid?

I'm very happy with my 712s, especially with how well they grip even in the rain, and all for just $300 all around for some 16s.
