Default tires for my GF's Protege 5

I'm looking for some replacement tires for my GF's '02 Protege 5. She drives slightly faster than average and about 15k miles/yr. We live in NH so she has snow tires for the winter. These are two choices because of availability, price and reviews online:

Toyo Proxes 4
Kumho ECSTA ASX

Any thoughts on these? Both have mostly good reviews on tirerack and 1010tires.

i have always had luck with kumho on my pro 5. right now, i have a mismatched set on my car just to keep all of my options open and to compare wear side by side. the set i have on the back are actually michelins and they are doing so well that i am considering wrapping all four wheels in michelins now.
