I have had both, and can honestly say that I will not buy the Kumho's again. There is nothing wrong with them, but they are definately not what I would classifiy as a "performance" tire. They have a very nice, and have a quiet and comfortable ride. They just don't stick like a good performance tire should .
Pros: quiet and comfortable ride
Cons: not a performance tire
Kumhos are awesome! I had them on my civic and Ive hit at least 160 in that car! They are very comfortable and they handle very well.
Pros: very comfortable, handle well
Cons: treadwear was sooo bad
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Over the last few days have had to panic stop twice, and I have to say that I'm very un-impressed by the dry stopping ability of these tires; I expected much better. Have been seeing a bunch more ABS use since these tires too .. for the money, they're not bad, but my money is going to Dunlop next time around ..
Pros: not bad for the money
Cons: unimpressed by dry stopping, more ABS use
As for the Kuhmo 712 it is a great, cheap tire for dry and rain conditions but in the bigger sizes that I have experience with (i.e. 225/45ZR17) they stunk in the snow.
Pros: great tire, cheap
Cons: stunk in the snow
I got my first kumho after having goodyear euro t/a's (which bl*w) OMG was I impressed with Kumhos
Pros: very impressed
I have 17" Kuhmo 712's and they are freakin awesome....
Pros: freakin awesome
I've got the Ecsta Supra 712's (15") and they seem OK. Maybe because I don't have much experience with different types of tires, but they seem to slide a bit on hard turns. They also wear fairly quick.
Pros: seem OK
Cons: slide on hard turns, wear quick
The Kuhmos are quiter and grip better than the Toyo Proxes.
Pros: quieter, better grip
It's been raining non stop since yesterday and here are my first impression on the Kuhmos: * They are very quiet on wet roads and expressways. * Off the line are way grippier than the Proxes. Under hard take offs in wet roads the Proxes spun a lot more than these Kuhmos. * The Kuhmos grip better on wet curves, tracking is excellent.
Pros: very quiet, grippier than Proxes
