Define "good." Are you looking for an all-season or summer tire? What are your priorities? Dry grip, wet grip, ride comfort, tread life, noise, etc are all things to consider.

I've driven the 205/50x15" Azenis in the downpour with no problems. And they prolly would have lasted about 25K miles daily driven.

I have the Pirelli P7000s and they're great! My buddy got them on his 16's just recently and he loves them too. He had Nitto 450s on there before and these are so much better. Another buddy of mine has Kuhmos on his '01 GSR and he says they're really nice except that they're soft and wear a little faster. I give them both :thumbup:
