As you can see opinions vary greatly!
I had the ES100's on my viggen & they were horrible! They lasted 15K miles & had poor dry weather grip. The car would easily sping them on 2nd gear roll ons! They also have a weak sidewall which caused poor st5eering feel & LOTS of tramlining!!!
I do not see how a tire with a 85,000 mile watantee would be any better in the summer. That's a VERY hard compound & isn't built for spirited driving.
I would just do a search at tire rack & a few other tire shops to see what they suggest in your pricerange & then check back with us. LOTS of options
