I tried Kumhos many years ago and didn't think they had very good grip, so when it came time to get some tires for my gli I went with "toyo t1s". There are many reviews of tires on tirerack to give you an idea of what people think. Miata.org or miata.net or some web site has quite a few reviews too. The toyo t1s has excellent wet grip and very good dry grip, they are quiet enough so I don't even think about it...
tirerack is mail order, so you have to pay someone locally to install the tires.
