I had a set of these on my old GMT400 Suburban, and I loved them.
Yokohama Geolandar A/T. I picked these out for my mom's Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. They aren't loud, they work well in all weather conditions (reason for getting them was for snow/all season because she doesn't drive enough to warrant snow tires).
Go with the Khumo. They’re a reputable brand. I’ve heard of some people having issues with the warranty. My personal first hand; they were a great performing tire. I rode mine hard though. So they only lasted about a year and half. It was the MT.
Kumho is a well known brand compared to the rest. I'd do kumho solus before any of them.
Since last time you saw it I upgraded the brakes to 312mm rotors with ATE 57 calipers in front and 256mm disk brakes in the rear and replaced the heavy Mercedes replica 18" wheels with BBS RK's in 8J 17 wrapped in sticky kumho KU-36 rubber.
I also run the AT51's on my Wrangler. Fantastic tire at a great price. They are smooth, quiet and have excellent traction. I highly recommend.
Yokohama S drives are pretty cheap now since they are an "older" tire design. I really like them on my fiesta, plenty of grip, and I'm getting decent mileage out of them.
I actually have the Kuhmos on my 530, and I've been pretty happy with them. Very quiet and seem to grip well. Just my two cents.
I have those Kumhos and I am not a fan. They are quiet, but not nearly as sharp as the RE050s they replaced, but the car moved from Texas to Ohio and I had to have all-seasons. I have 50,000 on one pair and 20,000 on the other (blew out 2 sidewalls in winter potholes) and I am going to use them through the summer and then put something else on for next winter (even though there's still a lot of tread there), probably Continental DWS. They are inexpensive, last forever (if you stay out of potholes) but feel awfully soft on turnin. Not really bad, just not my thing.
I have the Kumhos and I don't like them. They are quiet, and seem to last forever, to my chagrin. Personally, I'd rather trade a little tread life for more performance, but they might be what you are looking for. A word of warning, though: they break loose pretty easily when it's wet.
