Tires Kumho or Vredestein
Good budget tyre if you have sportier car.
If they are anywhere close to as bad as the Kumhos that came on my GLI, your not going to have a good time. Get some Michelin Cross Climate 2s. they are supposed to be the best all around tire available.
I got a set of 155 R15 Vredstein Sprint Classics by mail order when they were on offer for about £50 a corner, then got them fitted locally - have been great tyres for my '72 1300.
If you are looking for something cheaper,
Kumho Majesty 9 solus can also be an option
Their noise around the same level as top brand grand tourinf tires... like pirelli p7 as 3 or micherlin mxv4, continental pure contact.
very good at dry weather and acceptable at wet,
ride quality is good, but soso steering response.
Snow traction is vevevevery bad with this tire, almost the level if summer tire,but its georgia.
personally, I liked it.
I decided to swap the OEM Kumho tires for a set of CC2s with just 350 miles on the car.
My butt sensor says the CC2s ride a lot more softly than the OEM Kumhos. The ride feels more compliant and less sharp over potholes, expansion joints, etc. I find the CC2's ride to be noticeably better than the Kumhos. The CC2s also solved 90% of the steering wheel vibration issue.
I have the Quatrac Pro on my Mercedes E Class. I like the ride and handling and haven't noticed any noise in the time that I have had them.
I have kumho tires on my car. I bought it brand new in 2020 and they are just getting to the point where I will probably need to replace them in the next few months. I have 39,000 miles on my car so I guess that's pretty good for a mid-grade tire.
I got the KU22 all seasons on my 4th gen 3 sedan a few weeks ago and its pretty nice. Not that much road noise, good grip.
Nothing wrong with the Kumho tires but those are Z rated and ultra high performance tires. They won’t last long and will ride like an ox cart. But they will grip very well.
I had to replace all 4 Kuhomos at about 12k as I blew two out. Now sitting at 24k and they’re almost halfway worn on one set.
