We had Kumhos on the first ID4 for 2-3000 miles and they seemed perfectly fine to me.
Have the stock kumhos from vw which to my knowledge are not the ev specific kumhos that are out now. 17k miles and 0 issues, plenty of tread left. Quiet, ride nice, and do well in rain/deep snow. Definitely recommend them.
The Nokian tires are the winner. We run these tires in Greenland, and I run them on the R (The R2’s) in the North East. They are incredible tires in cold weather conditions. I’ve gotten many seasons - i am just now retiring them, after a very long run. They would have lasted even longer except I left them on the car in the summer because I couldn’t bring myself to switch to my firmer summer tires. Despite the abuse they held up.
I have a Finnish tire called Nokian outpost at/s and they work pretty damn well, have size 32s on a stock 3rd gen 4Runner and I went up to wheel in about 2 feet of snow last year about 5 or 6 times and only got stuck once in a deep snow drift on a hill. I’ve had no issues with them especially since they were 550 installed so not bad if you can get them and are on a budget, I think there are better options but for the price these have been almost flawless other than they are wearing a little faster then a expensive tire would, but that’s par for the course.
I recently bought four Nokian Ones for my 2019 Honda Civic EX after reading some really good things about them. I’m now approaching my first year of use and all I can say is that they’re great performing tires. Very little wear showing thus far. Fine traction throughout the year.
Had a set on my car that I just sold. In 40000 miles of having them, they were still at 80%. Noise wasn’t bad, and grip was pretty good for what they are (I’m a bit aggressive on highway on/off ramps).
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.
Mine is studded Kumho Wintercraft. It's actually quite good in the snow and ice, soft. But if we take the snow and ice out of the picture it's not that great, probably cause of studs.
I had their entyre series, basically the all weather option. A bit too firm for my liking. After 20k miles, they became very noisy.
