Tires Kumho or Cooper
I’m 1,000 miles into these with about 300 miles towing 8k lbs and 700 miles as a pavement princess. They feel much better than the two sets of OEM Hancooks that I had on this same truck.
Felt great in heavy rain and hoping that they handle well in the snow.
I had these on my jeep Cherokee. They looked good, rode well and lasted forever
It seems the Kumho scores higher in wet conditions, while the dry performance is quite similar to the Toyo.
HS52 is pretty solid, given the recent balance between Kumho and Toyo I would expect it to outperform the Toyo.
after looking online to see what the best bang for the buck *appears* to be, the Cooper Discoverer All-Terrain for $114/each is a pretty bangin' deal. I haven't loved Cooper's wet traction historically but they've made big strides in the past few years about catching up with that.
I have used Kumho touring tires on two different BMWs and I thought they were great for a mid priced tire.
Have the Kumho Ecsta, standard fitted here in the Netherlands. Have to say they are very silent and durable. Drove approx 37k km with them. Have also Continental Premiumcontact winter/snow tyres. Not bad too.
I literally just got these installed last week and I am really happy with them. Way better grip and quieter than the stock falken tires.
I replaced my Proxes with Kumho Ecsta PA51. They feel more comfy, but feel like they have a bit more road noise.
The worst OEM tires I ever had were Kumho's. Shot at 30k and had been rotated.
