Just to recount my experience, I had a set of Kumho 712s on my Acura RSX. One of the tires had to be replaced because it was shaped funny, and we were never able to get one of the others balanced properly. It's not that I'm against inexpensive tires, but I think in the quality control department you get what you pay for. Prior to that I'd used Dunlop D60A2 and Firestone Firehawks on my Integra GS-R and both were competent tires.

I have found over the years that the "name brand" tires are superior IMH and non expert opinion, at least in terms of QC. Plus they're generally well-backed by the dealers, and also readily available if you should happen to develop a puncture while road-tripping.
