Tires Kumho or Kleber
After blowing out a tire on a particularly nasty pothole I replaced my stockers with a set of Kumho Ecsta PA51 XLs. These are a nice, reasonably priced set of ultra-high performance all seasons that I'd been running on my MR2 Turbo and been very happy with.
Mine are 7 years old and the best tires shop in my town said that I still have 10-12k miles left on them. I decided to replace with the exact same ones though, since my car sits in FL sun whole days. They are excellent.
Our OEM Kumho Crugens are around 4/32” at 54,000 miles. We have found them to be just fine, quiet and smooth with no punctures or other incidents.
We have a 2023 AWD Pro S with the same tires. We just replaced at 30k. They probably could have gone another 5k or so, but one tire had a slow leak and they wouldn’t even try to repair it due to age of the tire. We got the same tires again at Discount/Americas Tire because they seemed fine
V730, Conti ECF, hankook RS4 is the way to go for endurance 200 and or less $$ per lap
I wish they still made Kumho Ecsta XS. Those were awesome and cheap.
I find Kumhos Start going really hard as soon as the first few mm come off. Great for longevity but not great for ride and grip after first year.
I heard Kumho don't last very long, but are good for the first 10,000 miles and not good at all by 30,000 miles.
No an EV but on an XF Jaguar 2 months and still slippy. Never again am I going to buy Kumho tyres.
THIS IS MY LAST KUMHO. IM GOING TO BUY A SET OF 4 FROM CONTINENTAL. KUMHO TIRES SUCK.
