Tires Toyo or Kumho
This is new release from Kumho, so reviews were sparse with the exception of one from Germany. I have about 500 mi on the tires, they are awesome! I can get traction now WOT in 1st, they have a stiffer sidewall which makes them responsive and planted in corners. Further, the ride is quiet and smooth which is important to me for a DD.
I've had the previous Kumho Ecsta Sport on a different car for budgetary reasons. They were great for a few months, but I felt like they lost a ton of grip after 10k miles or so. Longevity was my only complaint, but it was for my daily so even without a ton of grip, I'd consider them a good buy for value.
I get a lot of kms out of kumho solus
UK and lots of those are available, I run Toyo R888s on my Elsie and they Road Legal (I sprint/hillclimb in a road legal class)
I have the same year and trim and tires. Just went in today for the 30K check (30,500 miles), and I have 5/32 on the front, 2/32 on the back. I am planning on changing all four now, just debating which tires to get. I'll probably get the Kumho Crugen's again, as they seemed really quiet.
I’ve ran Ecstas on all my cars they’re good tires
After blowing out a tire on a particularly nasty pothole I replaced my stockers with a set of Kumho Ecsta PA51 XLs. These are a nice, reasonably priced set of ultra-high performance all seasons that I'd been running on my MR2 Turbo and been very happy with.
I've been buying Kumho Ecsta PS91, but I'd like to try something different.
I have a set of proxes on my G37x and I honestly think they are one of the worst tires I have ever owned. They don't hold grip in corners and downright dangerous when it's wet.
I bought cheap Kumhos once. Short life span and too slippery to drive on even though they still had some tread.
