excellent performing tire (but not the absolute best) they do wear pretty fast and get rather noisy as they wear

I've heard the stock tires on the STI are better than the AVS sports.

From what I've heard, the AVS ES100's are better than the AVS Sport dB2's despite being cheaper.
If you're looking for a good performance tire in this price range, consider the Falken FK451. If money is not a factor, go for the Bridgestone Potenza S03 (King of Tires )
