I think it matters a bit as I stated earlier with my Michelin/Bf Goodrich comments. I also think it is possible for a tire brand that may not be considered top tier, such as General, to produce a really good tire, which may very well be the case with the Grabbers.

Continental makes really good tires, but many of them have very soft sidewalls, which is fine unless you place high importance on steering response/feel. I had the DWS's on my old e36 and other than the soft sidewalls, they were great tires.
