Suspension, Brakes, Tires & Wheels - Fulda tires?

Anyone have any experience with Fulda tires? I stopped by my local Tire Kingdom to ask about some 215/40R/17 tires and all they had in stock were Fulda Carat Extreme which I had never even heard of. They are Z rated and the guy said I might get 25,000 miles out of them which is not much. He quoted me $109.00 each plus all the other stuff, total comes out to be about $500.00 for four.

Currently my 2002 SI has Nankang tires. Two of them are shot, front end must be out of line, the other two are OK but I would rather have all 4 match.

Any thoughts or experience on Fulda?

i've never heard of Fulda or Nankang.

Any recommendations for tires on a 2002 Civic SI, with 17" rims?

i'm partial to Nittos (http://www.nittotire.com/) but i've heard good things about Falkens (http://www.falkentire.com/). Dunlops (http://www.dunloptire.com/) aren't to bad either.

What about Fuzion Tires, made by Bridgestone? Reviews I've read about them are good. They look great, including a "bumper" to prevent scratching up our fancy wheels on curbs. Supposedly created by Bridgestone specifically for the Civic, etc. custom car crowd.
