the Kumho TA51 (assuming TA51a as it is the current production) is a well reviewed and tested very low rolling resistance tire, thanks to a silica-enhanced tread compound. Most reviewers and owners over time generally note a small INCREASE in fuel economy of 1-3 MPG.
I had two sets of the Kumho Crugen HT51 SL. I liked both times and they lasted about 40,000 miles each. Seemed low but they're snow rated so I know those don't get as many miles because the rubber is softer. They handled great in snow/sleet/ice and enabled my front wheel drive van to go through lots of winter weather driving.
This last set (third owned) pissed me off though and barely made it 18,000 miles even with proper inflation and alignment.
the tires are vitour formula spec z.
Answer to your question, the "best" 200tw tire in the market right now is the Vitour P1.
I went with Kumho, competitive pricing and I’ve had them on a few years now and 30k miles. Still looking good
got some kumho crugen HT51. similar to a michelin LTX. these are E load rated. i have 6 of them on my 24ft class c. bought these in 2020. we've put on over 30k miles with them. still very good
I replaced mine after 27k miles and they were DONE, no thread left on any of them. 13k miles later they look very good, but I have also been rotating them (unlike the Kumho ones).
I find Kumhos Start going really hard as soon as the first few mm come off. Great for longevity but not great for ride and grip after first year.
THIS IS MY LAST KUMHO. IM GOING TO BUY A SET OF 4 FROM CONTINENTAL. KUMHO TIRES SUCK.
Tires Kuhmo Solis. Eh weird wear causing vibration.
