Ive driven a evo with the Advans on em both dry and in the rain. Dry they were great, but rain just felt a little scary to me. Thats how I PERSONALLY FELT. Everyone has their own opinons. That was mine. Mind you there are many things to take into consideration with tires. When i drove with them in the wet they were almost bald and that could be why. Yet again just MY experience with them. I dont speak for everyone.

Give the Kumho ASX's a try. Like most are saying they do well in dry and wet and seem to do well in snow based on Tire Racks website.

I will definitely be going with Falken RT615. I had them put on the miata and love them. They are cheap tires and perform very well. I still have one more season left on the advans

Had the kumho asx's for a year now, and they've grown on me. Good all around tire for $88.

I'll give another bid for Kumho Ecsta MX's. I've got them on mine and they seem to be a great all around tire. Stick well in the dry, do pretty well in the wet and I've even had them in some snow and they weren't horrible.

Stock advans are actually very good tires for this car.
