High Performance (Street) Tires

[Tessie McMillan]

I too vote for the Kumho Ecsta 712 as a CHEAP street tire that well 
outperforms its price. 

I have them on my '88 80Q. I've driven them on the street for several 
months (since .... February of this year). After a good bit of hesitation 
I tried them on the track for a couple of sessions each at two different 
events. They performed well and you can't even tell they had been driven! 
This contrasts with the heavy scalloping and chunking I endured on 
the old Bridgestone RE71, Yokohama AVS Intermediate, and Dunlop SP Sport 
5000 street tires when I alternated them with my track tires.

p.s. - I'm still looking to find opinions from folks on the Schrick 272 
and 276 cams... do they pass WA smog?
