My used CX-30 came with Kumho Crugen HP71 that are really great for road noise and all weather. The single snow storm we had so far it handled very well!
Pros: great for road noise

V730 lasts like the RS4, but is way faster.
Pros: way faster
Kumho v730 are pretty affordable in super class. But endurance 200 will save $$.
Pros: pretty affordable
Falken Azenis RT660 or Kumho Ecsta V730. RT660 might be a smidgen faster, but the V730 is more durable and will last for more runs.
Pros: more durable
Cons: smidgen faster
I've never had a more tenderfoot set of rubber on any car and was really glad to have worn them out. Replaced with Kumho tires which ride like a noticeable harder compound/tire and have had no punctures since.
Pros: harder compound, no punctures
Cons: tenderfoot set of rubber
Kumho tires are a decent brand.
I would agree with another poster that they are a good mid-tier brand. In that range of tires, you generally pay less and get very good performance.
What I’ve found is the mid tier brands usually give something up to the top tier brands like Michelin. For example, if you get a performance tire, the Kumho might have dry grip that is as good or better than the Michelin, but maybe the tire doesn’t last as long or isn’t quite as good in the rain.
The differences tend to be small, though. And the price premium you pay for top tier brands is usually a larger percentage than the difference in performance.
Pros: good mid-tier brand
Cons: less good in rain
Nothing wrong with the Kumho tires but those are Z rated and ultra high performance tires. They won’t last long and will ride like an ox cart. But they will grip very well.
Pros: grip very well
Cons: won’t last long
Mileage: 32186 km
I'm running on Kumhos, so I can't say much about others. Kumho (KM17) is OK, but it generates a flat spot in few weeks if car just sits and then first 10 miles are bumpy. Quite cheap so perhaps I can stand that, but not really much cheaper than others, so I won't buy another set.
Pros: quite cheap
Cons: flat spot, bumpy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Beetle
Part number: KM17
Changed to Kumho ecsta. Nag dry rot.
Cons: nag dry rot
The V730s are in the bottom of their class in rain performance in Tire Rack's testing and I tend to agree with their ranking.
Cons: bad rain performance
Vehicle:
BMW
