Well, price and availability (mine, not the tires) ended up winning. I bought 4 Viva2 tires from Walmart today, despite the lack of info. Two notes however: my car is much, MUCH quieter than it was with the Kuhmo brand I had. And despite the lack of break-in, the trip home put me at the same mileage (according to the Scangauge). To be sure, I'll have to adjust the Scangauge to account for the difference in tire diameter.
