Swapped the 21’s and summer tires off my summit reserve for 18” XDs and Kumho Venture with a 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. Had 10” of snow and didn’t bat an eye in snow mode.
Kumho - superior value and great handling.
Kumho ecsta sport S. Huge improvement
I got 275 and use to have pirellis now I got kumhos they don’t spin as much as the pirellis from a straight dig I use to fish tail hard when my foot was deep in the pedal I recommend kumhos and falkens they straight
Try kumho tires korean brand and decent quality for its price, for my sedan its about 2.8k per tire
My brother just got kumho ecsta sport a/s on his stinger and he’s very happy with them.
On my last car Michelin Pilot Sport 4S lasted ~20k but that's kind of expected due to how soft they are. On my current I have Kumho Ecsta Sport and they have lasted about the same but instead of wear being the issue they're cracking/tearing.
On my current car I drove kumho tires in the summer and they are pretty decent. Not the best I had but still pretty good.
Boils my piss when I see people walking into tyre shops and just asking for the cheapest they have. It vaporises my shit when it's clearly a family car with child seats in the back. Why would you cheap out on keeping your kids safe?
Do not get this. Tire is good enough with handling but it eas worn down to 4/32 within 25k miles. Hp71 was what i had.
