Ecasta 712's are great tires. I have a set on my car and they beat the stock tires hands down.
Excellent wet traction, excellent dry traction, grippy in the corners.
Is there a better tire out there? Yes, but its going to cost more than I'm willing to pay.
Anything bad about the ecastas? Yes, I think getting 20k out of them is pushing it. I drive my car mildly hard, but not ridiculously.
Definitely get all 4 tires though. Rotating is a must, or you will wear those two new tires very quickly. Another plus about kumho 712's, they tell you when its time to rotate (very easy to read wear indicators).
I paid about 450 for all 4 tires & installation. Plus I get free rotation/balancing for the life of the tire. I like discount tire. :D [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
