Need some tire advice

Alright, in the shopping and buying mood for new tires for the AE. I've narrowed it down to three choices. I'd like some feedback and advice from all those who have had experience with them etc...

Kumho MX
Dunlop FM901
Yokohama AVS ES100

Thanks!
Michael

I hated the ES100's. After a month, I sent them back to the Tire Rack, and bought the Bridgestone 750's. It was more money, and a big improvement.

The ES100's were not acceptable for my needs.

Thanks, they were my third choice, the MXs were my first. Heard they handled great on the streets.

Go G-Force KDW's, ultimate grip for the price. They last a while also.

Ended up getting the ES100 (cheapest tire of the bunch and fit my needs the most accordingly.) They handle really well, especially in the rain.
