The Kumoh rates higher than the Fuzion in almost all categories (spec. wet traction, noise, comfort, and overall) and are listed at $15 more on the Tirerack.
After checking my numbers, I placed the order for my 255/40/17 w/ the Rack.
Can't wait ... pics will soon follow.

I just ordered a set of General Exclaims from Tire Rack. They are rated #1 out of 46 tires in its class, which includes all of the tires mentioned in this thread. They are also one of the cheapest $119 each.

I just got back from getting them rebalanced and it's still vibrating. This fricking sucks! The vibration is much less now, but I have no idea what to do now! I called them back and the guy's like it could be a bent wheel. The place is like 1/2 hour away so it's hard for me to get out that way with work and stuff. Any suggestions guys??

If the shaking started after you installed the tires then it sounds like the tires. You would have to hit something pretty hard to bend a wheel. I once installed a pair of new Kumhos and had the same vibration. When I swapped them out, the vibration went away.
Also check to make sure the paint dot on the tire sidewall is aligned with the stem. That is the light spot on the tire and it can be hard to balance if it is on the opposite side.

my rims are brand new, and there is no paint dot on the sidewall. I'm guessing I have a bad rim or tire...I know that my alignment is SLIGHTLY off, which I will take care of after I install the aspec suspension. I also know that there is a small dent on one rim from Acura. Any more help would be greatly appreciated!
