What's the next best choice, the Federal EVO in stock size, a Continental Contiprocontact 165/60R15, or something else? What about Hankook? Anyone else besides SPYD3R http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/s...=1#post1224115 have praise for them?
I just went the Hankook route with the Hankook Optimo H724 All-Season Tire - 175/65R14 for my 2011 they are way above what was on it (stock) if you would like we can get together so you can take it for a ride and see what you think.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!
I am happy they are working to your satisfaction. They did not for me. Also, I will not sell and install chinese tires in my shop as a matter of principle and safety.
I feel the same way, except for the necessity at the time of my changing tires. If I were in your position, I'd do the same too.
For what it is worth, I am now on my second set of Kumho KH 16s on the front of my 2013 ST-S. Love them. 175/55r15 this time, had the 165s last time. I would not hesitate using these tires yet again. Not as much of a performance tire as the Yokohoma S34, but good grip wet and dry, seem to balance out well, rolls down the road smoother and straighter. 77T, 440AA rating. $85 each delivered.
