the kumho's are about $22 more expensive per tire. Reason im not looking at more $$$ tires is that I never drive the car and when I do I dont drive it hard enough to notice a difference in tires. Anyone have any experience with the hankook's?

I don't know abot Hankooks, but personally, I think Kumho ASX is better tires than 712. The tread life is unbelieveable 400. I had 712 before, and ASX handles if not better, at least the same as 712.

I have the Kumho 712s, about 9k miles so far, very happy with them.

I love the hankooks, much more quiet than the kumho's. Ive had both.

K104's handle suprisingly well. Never tried Kumho's.

I had 712's on my CL type S and loved them. I replaced them w/ the new performance Kumho Ecsta MX's. I got about 30K on the 712's watching them carefully (rotating, tire pressures, etc.) I actually liked them better than the MX's I replaced them w/ which are supposed to be better tires. Great grip in dry and rain. Buy 'em!

I had the 712's on my S14. I loved them, they did wear out pretty quick but my camber was really off. They handled great though.
