Kumhos have been good for me. A few years ago I had one tire that was factory
defective. It had a pin hole leak that drove us nuts. But that was an
exception.
Lately, I've used Generals on my Mercedes, Ferrari and Land Rover. They get
great consumer ratings,
. They're sticky, quiet and best of all, are cheap at TireRack.
