I have had no complaints with the Kumho 165-15 tires I bought last spring.
Finished second in the VTR autocross, so they can't be all bad.  28 bucks
each from Tire Rack.  I see on their site tonight they are now 29.  They
don't have the Dunlop anymore, but they still sell a Firestone for 41.  I'd
buy the Kumhos again.
