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 have them ony C5. They're actually not bad even when not up to temp. I just don't push them hard until I build some heat. On the street they're AOK as long as youre not stupid.
The Phantoms are a decent tire for the price. They're a Discount Tire brand but manufactured by Kumho. I'd personally recommend the Phantom because both tires are fairly equal but those are cheaper. That being said they're both not particularly good. They'll get the job done and that's about it.
I’ve seen mixed reviews of them. With some saying they aren’t great in the wet(acceptable but lacking when compared to others), other saying they wear really quickly.
Some Kumho winter tires or someshit. Had them almost a decade ago and only went 1 winter on them before I said fuck it and bought Michelins.
I think it’s gotta be the Kumho all seasons I have on my DD right now, they have absolutely zero grip even on perfectly dry warm roads
