RE92's = Maximum Suckage!
Uggh I HATE riding on my RE92's, I want new tires soooo bad.
Any personal recommendations or experience with Yokohama AVS ES 100's or Falken Azenis. I WILL NOT put on Nitto's or Dunlop's on my car and Toyo's are just too damn expensive for as often as I go through tires.

The Nittos are really not that bad, but my only other experience is with the T1-S. Loved that tire. too bad my stupid ass let the alignment go and ruined my set...which led to my wheels getting f'ed up...which led to multiple trips to Mastro...I damn near kicked myself in the balls for f'ing up those tires. 
Changed my mind at the last second though. 
For the money, Azenis are hard to beat. Won't last long, so I'm not sure how much you're really going to save, but I would look at the T1-S, as you can find them in a 225/40/18 for around $750 mounted/balanced and out the door. Not bad for tires that are just shy of Michelin Pilots in the real world. If you mount them on the factory 16s, you're looking at a lot less money as well. Don't rule out those Toyo's just yet.

Actually I was gonna go with the Kumho's (215-45-17) at first but I'm leaning towards the Flakens at the moment, the Yokohamas are still an option but I've seen some good deals locally on the Falkens. I really dont want to spend more than 450 for tires. Sorry, Eric but 750 for tires... Unless thery are Pilots is insane, for my type of driving.

I've had the Falkens and nothing but good things to say for the peformance but I'm going to try the Kuhmo MXs next time around.
I'm currently riding the Yoko ES100s and they aren't the greatest as far as performance is concerned but a well mannered tire. All of the options are reasonably prices.
