I had 245/40-17's Kumho MX's on my WRX and they were okay, but didn't have the ultimate grip of the Falkens.
Pros: okay grip
Cons: lacked ultimate grip
Vehicle:
Subaru
I've got a set of kumho ecsta SPT's and they are awesome. No sidewall flex whatsoever, very impressive tire for the money. For a 320 treadwear rating, they do a good job.
Pros: no sidewall flex, impressive
I have ASX's and for the most part they're pretty nice. I like how quiet they are and they have decent grip, only real problem I have with them is the sidewalls like to flex alot if you drive spirited, but if you dont really care about that and just want a good all around tire that does pretty damn well in the rain I would say they're a great choice.
Pros: quiet, decent grip
Cons: sidewalls flex alot
Well, about time I updated this: I went with the Kumho SPT's and have been pleased with them so far. Good traction in the dry, nice and stable in the wet, and they are very quiet compared to the Potenzas I had previously, so that's good. Two things I've noticed with them though: They are not quite as stable on uneven pavement, as they move from side to side a little more than the previous tires. Also, I haven't been able to hit the same kinds of fuel mileage as the old tires.
Pros: good traction in dry, stable in wet
Cons: not stable on pavement, lower mileage
I have 195/50R15 KU25s over 8" and compared to the same sized Falken ZE329, they don't look as good. The sidewall bulges out on the Kumhos.
Cons: sidewall bulges out
khumo? forget about em, wet traction is dangerously low. i prefer Bridgestone, the potenza line. RE-01 R for summer compound. 960 as Pole Position for all weather compound. keep in mind that my perspective is from a performance standpoint, i dont give a crap about how many miles i get out of a tire so long as i enjoy it while i have it.
Pros: good for performance
Cons: low wet traction
I am currenlty running 235/40/18 tires on 8.5 wide rims all around. I don't know if it's just me but the car feel a lot smoother now
Pros: car feel a lot smoother
I had them in 245 40 17 on my GTI. I thought they were great! A little loud, but they are cheap tires so I didnt care. I used them as track tires and they wear like iron, and grip very well once hot.
Pros: grip very well, wear like iron
Cons: a little loud
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Anyone running Kumho Ecsta MX (ku15) from Tire Rack? I bought a set (225-45-17) for my Jetta and they are complete junk! They are so loud I sound like a garbage truck driving down the road. Upon stopping, the noise is even more unbearable. These tire corner like s--t!
Cons: loud, corner like s--t
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
