Default Kuhmo Ecsta HP4 716 or Dunlop SP Sport A2

I need a tire that i can run all season. Two winters with my sp8000, lucky i'm still alive. Any opinions on these tires. Are the Dunlop worth the difference in price? Or any other suggestion.

Default SP A2 are good all-seasons, but don't expect any type of performance out of them...

If you want more performance (but still all-season), give Dunlop SP5000 a try. Or if you really have a lot of money - then Michelin Pilot Sport A/S.

Also, the Sumitomo HTR+ recently tested by tirerack has gotten pretty good marks.

Don't know anything about the Kumho.
