Tires Kumho or OEM Subaru
Replaced my oem kumhos at 35k. Replaced them with Phantom CSports. ($850 for the set). No complaints and the range doesn't looked to be effected by more than a few miles.
Meanwhile, my rears (225/35/18 on a 10) have been fine so far, about a year. Kumho Ecsta PS31.
I had one of these. I leased a 2017 XT Premium for 3 years. I had zero issues with it over the ~ 30K miles. It was the first new car I'd owned that never had any warranty claims and never saw the inside of a dealer until the day I returned it. I changed oil and filters and swapped out the crappy OEM rubber for decent tires
V730 are perfect. The wear like iron, are very predictable and most important for a track day tire- don’t have heat cycling issues.
I’ve had good luck with “value” level Kumhos and Generals. Currently I drive a used BMW with over 300hp that came with budget Kumhos. They were brand new so I kept them. When they wore out I replaced them with expensive Continentals. I absolutely noticed the difference in quality
My personal experience with Kumho is that they make good value for money tires. I'd get them. They score decent in tests and seem to last long wich results in quite low running costs.
I actually just grabbed a set of Kumho solus 4s all weather for Canadian driving and I absolutely love them on my awd suv! It was between those and the falcon wildpeak AT trail …both had great reviews so I went with the Kumho because slightly cheaper and I think I can see myself buying these again
Kuhmo arent bad performance wise i just dont feel like they last as long.
Tell you what I wouldn't recommend: Kumho Solus, thanks to which my car now tends to pull itself in different directions on freeways with the cut-in rain channels.
I ran Kumho's when that's what I could afford. They're not good for long.
