Just search on google and stuff.
Usually comes up with some decent results and some websites already have some reviews from previous owners..

I've got the Ecsta 711s, I haven't had a problem with them yet and its been about a year. I'd say get 'em. How much are you getting them for?

Yeah i hear they are pretty good. Those were the ones i was being told to get, then i found a smokin deal on some Toyo Proxes FZ4. They rock, if you can spend the extra money go for them and i think the wear is better on the Toyo's. Not much help but just my experience. :)

I had to pick up one of these 711s in the summer because it was wearing and I got it for $125 Brand New. Thats a sweet ass deal!! I don't know if the guy still sells them for that cheap. Are you in Calgary?

I've heard good things about the Kumho's. I suggest that you give Anand at My Tires a call @ 291-1661. He is awesome and will give all Beyond members a fantasic deal!

He is up just north of 32nd Ave NE and 27th street. I bought my winter from him and he beat everyone in town for them. I have also replace two performance tires this past summer and he did beat everyone by quite a bit.
