We're running the SPT's on our 6's and I have to say for the price they are a great tire, especially in wet. They are just as good as the Yokohama's ES-100's we ran previously on our cars.

I have a friend who has the ASX's on her car and she likes them very much, they even did well in the snow here in Ohio! Overall, as far as getting your money's worth, Kumho's offer great performance and handling, for a great price.

We run the Kumho MX's on our MSP during the Spring & Summer, can't say enough about the product.

Look at these 2 tires HANKOOK RS2's or Kumho MX's

the MX's will be harder to find, but both of these tires are VERY sticky tires for the money. Not to mention they are as cheap if not cheaper than other tires with less capability.

i ran both of these tires and loved them i also ran a set of yoko's, but Whoo they were expensive and didn't last 7k miles. sticky tires though. was worth .6 sec in the 1/4 on my GTI with a 50 shot.
