I actually run the kumho ecsta pa31! So far I love everything about them, they have tons of grip and really low road noise if that's something you're concerned about.

Pros: tons of grip, low noise

Kumho Tires

Update: Got the tires installed today. I noticed a major drop in road noise. I was using 9yr old Kumhos, that sat in the garage most of their life. Other than that, no noticeable difference going from 225/40 to 225/45.

Pros: major drop in noise
Cons: no noticeable difference
Vehicle: Audi

225/40/19 snows are what i run on the stock wheel, the Kumho Wintercraft WP72 is a killer tire for the money ($173 on simple tire)

Pros: killer tire for money

I swapped my OEM tires for summer tires (Kumho Ecsta PS31), they provide much more grip and are a bit quieter though since they aren't LRR (Low Rolling Resistance) I do lose about 10% on range.

Pros: more grip, a bit quieter
Cons: lose about 10% range
Vehicle: Chevrolet

I've used Sumitomo and Kumhos performance summer tires with success - although the Kumho PA31's I put on the Fit have worn super fast and are now quite loud.

Pros: performance summer tires success
Cons: worn super fast, quite loud
Vehicle: Honda Fit

I have the LX Platinums on my GLI. After 20,000+miles, they show little wear. Handling is definitely noticeably worse than the original summer tires, but not awful. Winter traction was surprisingly good.

Pros: little wear, good winter traction
Cons: worse handling than summer tires

Mileage: 20000 km

I have the Kumhos and I don't like them. They are quiet, and seem to last forever, to my chagrin. Personally, I'd rather trade a little tread life for more performance, but they might be what you are looking for. A word of warning, though: they break loose pretty easily when it's wet.

Pros: quiet, seem to last
Cons: break loose easily
