"Robert A. Cunningham" wrote In the current issue they're all "ultra high-performance" tires. They're not the more ordinary, good ol' basic everyday tires.

Depends how you use the tires. I chose Michelin for one of my autos (50% highway driving) while at the same time I chose a no name cheaper brand for another auto I own (local driving only). Probably there is more than one answer to your question but I look at it this way, any new tire is better than a worn out tire. Inotherwords I wouldn't waste too much time deciding while driving on worn tires (should this be the case).

The tire most satisfying to me was BF goodrich Traction T/A all season. Nice ride in summer, firm grip in snow and ice. Better than some snow tires. And they last a long time too. Check out their ratings in TireRack.com

On our 1995 Civic Del Sol (with AT), wife surprised me with the delivery of 4 Kum Ho tires (delivered by UPS, not her...). Those tires were the best thing we could have done, as our Civic Del Sol cornered like it was on rails! The 2004 CR-V (5speed MT) just got Michelins at Costco, and, again, seems like the best thing... Maybe we are just happy with new tires?! Love that new rubber smell, and, those new valve stems...

I can't help you with the CRV. I like Dunlop SP Sport A2 tires for the Civic. If it snows much where you live, you'll need Blizzaks in the winter if you buy the Dunlops. Andy
