Have had Avons, Toyos, and the OE Conti ones... They all have their merits.

Toyo - Grippy but soft
Avon - Reasonably grippy and a little harder than the Toyo
Conti - Expensive!

Have Falken & Pirelli on there at the minute and wouldn't have either again. They seem very hard rubber and aren't grippy at all.

Lil bro has just put the Khumo on the ZR and so far i'd say they were somewhere close to the Toyo and Avons.

as with all things tyre it is as much as finding a tyre that suits how you like the car to 'feel' rather than out and out grip, as most non-budget brands are fairly similar nowadays

I have been using BFGoodrich's on mine since i had it (nearly 5 years) and only just swapped to set of T1-R's on the rear (to try them out) it is a pity but i have not really had that much oppertunity to do so as my car has been poorly, but i think i prefered the BFG's because i have got used to them... the T1-R seem to make the back end a little bit more skittish
