Which KUMHO tires??? S70

I've been reading all the "raves" about Kumho tire performance on T5's (especially for the price!), and now I am thoroughly confused as to WHICH model Kumho is the "best" for my application??

I know I only want/need an H-rated tire these days, and in the stock size 205/55-16", there seem to be an "ECSTA" & "SUPRA" model 712, 714 and maybe others?

Can anybody please straighten me out on this? According to tirerack.com, there IS a Kumho ECSTA for about $40-45 per tire, but my problem is AFTER I order them on-line (pay for shipping) and take them to a local shop for mounting/balancing and stem charges, it comes to an ADDITIONAL $20 per tire (I live in Southern CA), so if anybody KNOWS of a "deal" on these Kumhos at a shop in Southern CA, I'd sure appreciate the tip!

THANKS!
HMB
