Kumho tires

I am thinking about tring a set Ecsta ASXs 205/50/16 on the Cooper.Seems like everyone that gave reveiws at the Tire Rack really like these tires.Has anybody here tried these tires?I would like to get more than 10000 miles out of a set and the 440 rating attracts me.

I decided to go with the ECSTA 711 and today I got a chance to try them out.I am very happy with these tires.Cannot beleive that a tire in this price range handles like they do.I pushed it hard they never broke loose.The Goodyears would have been sliding all over the road.They might not be the best tire you can buy but they are all the tire I will ever need.
