Who makes the best high performance tires?

Kenbo: I think Kumho makes one of the best high performance tires. I have Kumho Ecsta ATZ high performance all season tires, and they are amazing. The tread lasts forever and gives great traction. I am just curious who else makes great high performance tires. What do you think?

Our Mercedes had some Pirelli tires and they were damn amazing as far as road noise and control is concerned. Otherwise, I'm really not sure who's "best". Yokohoma and Kumho are both great brands though.

Im sorry, I have to ask... Kumho? SERIOUSLY?!

I don't know a whole lot about tires, but when I used to drag race, I used Mickey Thompsons.

They got the job done, and they were good for a few races at a time, which seems pretty high performance considering.

Maybe I should get back into that... hmm..
