Time for new tires for the front end. Even with rotation, one pair has a lot more wear than the other. In another 7k or so, I'll replace the other pair and then rotate. But for now...

I'm trying to decide between Kumho ecsta asx vs Bridgestone turanza ls-h for my 850 glt wagon. Kumho is about half the price installed: $140 vs $280, but I have enjoyed the Bridgestone ls-h tires that are on there now (50k+ miles).

Kumho is tempting given the price, but maybe this is penny wise and pound foolish as they say. Any opinions appreciated.
