Owned two sets of kuhmo LX Platinum excellent budget tire very quiet got 45k miles with a few rotations still didn't hit wear bar when changed. I will say not good at all in any sort of snow.
Not low grip but sticky in yet durable and fairly quick is the Kumho Ecsta V730.
Shit for we weather tough, to be fair
We went with Kumho Crugen tires when it was time to replace the stock Yokohama Geolanders. Its probably been 20K miles and they have been great. Quiet and the car handles the same.
I did some track days with Sailun Atrezzo R01 on my first gen BRZ this year. They're 180 AA A, but only cost me 130$ CAD per tire. They hold up to the heat and don't chunk but they're a little loud on the street.
I just put on Kumho RoadVenture AT and have had no complaints. CO just got hit with a pretty good snow storm (as least 6 inches) last week and they did great driving in it.
The Kumho is a far superior tire from a respected manufacturer based in South Korea. The Radar might look like the better deal up front, but it will likely wear fast and not perform anywhere near as good as the Kumho tires.
I used to run Kumho tires on my 99 SE-L maxima when I was in my early 20's they were decently performing tire. I pretty much only ran their UHP summer tires though. As a brand they've been around for a long long time, they are probably upper mid-range tires depending on the type you have.
Have um right now, not to bad. Quiet good in the rain there just a basic all weather really.
In a year and a half of having these tires I’ve had 3 flats and 1 slow leak on the sidewall of a a tire… needless to say, I’ll never get kumho’s ever again
The Kumho are crap in the rain. I was facing hydroplaning issues within a week of buying the car.
The did do it in a decently controlled way but I have not been impressed with the stock tires at all. Not to mention I have 20k on them and about 10% of tread left.
