need to get some new tires for my 07 Si. the michelins are a lil steep even with my discount, just wondering if anybody has had good experiences with a different tire before i shell out the dough for these.

How many miles did you get out of your stock tires?

What are you looking for from the new tires performance or longevity? What type of driving do you mostly do?

How much are you looking to spend?

I just ordered a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S plus for my ride and having them installed tomorrow. I keep hearing they are one of the best performance all-season tires you can buy (I hope so because I paid some $$$ for them).

Kumho Ecsta AST's.

i've never tried the ast's, but i do have the kumho ecsta asx on my si and they grip MUCH better than the stock tires on dry pavement. i'm expecting them to be much better in the snow too, the stock tires were horrible last winter. i just don't know how long they will last compared to the stock tires, if that's a concern.

Tire Rack is having a closeout on the Hankook RS-2:

You might want to go a little wider than stock. Those are great prices for a great tire.

onlinetires.com is the cheapest place to buy tire i have order 5 sets from them before, im rockin hancock ventus 2 225/45/17 on my si and they do pretty well.

thanks for all the responses. these tires have lasted 36k+ before getting close to the wear bar. thats with the occasional drag race events over the last 2 years. basically im looking for another good performance all season tire that wont run me $240 each. just wanted some feedback from anyone who has used something different.

Great tires and deal. Ordered mine last week on Tuesday and it was delivered at my doorsteps on Friday. Can't beat $356 shipped for a set.
