Default Tire suggestions for stock rims

I currently have Khumo Ecstas on all four wheels and have noticed the tread coming off of them fast. I want to switch to another tire and am looking for some suggestions, any takers?

i think the tread will come off faster with the direzza star specs as well as the potenza re11. Might want to look into the sumitomos and fuzion tires,.....they wont be as "sticky" though

If you are looking for a good tire at a good price the Sumitomo HTRZ III would be the choice for me.
If I can help with the tires let me know.

im pretty happy with the goodyear gs d3 which appears to be similar to the sumitumo.

I'm happy with my direzza ( older model) on OEM wheels.

I'll buy the newer model from Jim when these are used up.

love my hankook rs2's in 205/55 and 245/45 sizes for ap1 sizes.

However if you auto-x they are a little soft and get greasy. But for an everyday tire i love them
