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.
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.
Falken’s parent company sumitomo makes the encounter AT with similar performance for much cheaper, it’s what I’m running currently and they’re great
My car came with Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 with about 19k on them. I bought it after a blizzard and was pleasantly surprised at how capable the tires are. We've subsequently had torrential rain and they grip great in the wet too.
The downside is that they're quite noisy.
The OE tires (Kumho Solus KL21) still have probably 25% of the tread remaining, so they're not in need of replacement for that reason... even though they have become pretty noisy and have a bit of feathering around the edges.
I ran Kumho's when that's what I could afford. They're not good for long.
Kumho’s no idea what type of Kumho. But they’re absolutely terrible.
