I went with Kuhmo Solus TA31 EV 215/55/17 and am very happy. Stock is 50 tall but due to rougher roads here and oncoming winter, I got a slight taller tire to better absorb road imperfections.

Pros: very happy, better absorb imperfections

Kumho Tires

I ran V730s for the entire year last year on an STU M340i xDrive. It's a heavy car that can really put heat into the kumhos and the awd helped with v730's abysmal traction. It is as fast as the big 2 in the tight corners however judging by my GPS and accelerometer data.

Pros: fast in tight corners
Cons: abysmal traction
Vehicle: BMW

I do rate and recommend the TA51a, which carries a composite score of 62 in their "All Season Tires" testing category, just beating out the Falken Aklimate. The RT45, came in two spots above, at a score of 63 and again with their recommendation.

Pros: good composite score

Kumho Tires

I am at 14,000 kms after 7 months I checked the tread and was at 6mm so planning to change by 20,000 miles (32,000 kms). I have already reached out to Kumho Warranty but they don't even want to try to work on something with me. I can't see myself spending $1500 to get a new set after this demonstration

Cons: don't want to work
Vehicle: Kia
Mileage: 14000 km

Seeing as I am preparing to have to swap them out at 30,000kms I would say they may be one of the worst tires on the market. I do have them (stock) on my EV9 which I have driven relatively gently. Reached out to their warranty department and they refuse to work with me. I don't really want to spend 1500 on a product that drastically underperforms.

Cons: drastically underperforms, worst tires
Mileage: 30000 km
