Why are the Khumo 712's "sucky" tires? I ask because those are the tires that I am currently running on the street and for the occasional autox. I will freely admit to knowing nothing (made obvious by the fact that I drive a Ford Probe), but they seem like OK tires to me. Of course I speak from ZERO experience with any other tires. The reviews I read on Tire Rack didn't say they sucked or I wouldn't have purchased them. Perhaps it is a matter of not being able to go fast enough in my 2.0L I4 non-turbo 2+2 sportscar-wannabe for the tires to be an issue. ; )

I would appreciate any information that anyone is willing to provide. Thanks.

P.S. Sorry if this is thread-jacking.
