We have a set of Kuhmo XS's and Koni Yellows on the way - Santa was good to us!
I have had both sets on cars I have owned. the kh16 is more of a highway tire, it grips good in all weather conditions. The LX platinum is good in all conditions accept snow, it gets ok traction because of the softer rubber used. It grips better than any tire I have had for the price of them in dry conditions
I bought some Yokohama YK520s. As for performance they drive well and don't seem to squeal as much when they spin. The handling is very good and the ride is about the same as the Michelins. They road noise is also similar. They handle wet real well
For the tires I have both Kuhmo Exsta XS and Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1. The Kuhmos offer amazing grip in the dry, a bit more than the Dunlop I would say. Highly recommended for autocross.
I have Sdrives on my car, and love them. They suck in the snow, but are great in the wet and dry.
I had a set of Kuhmo ECSTA SPT (I think I have all the letters right lol) on our old Jetta and they are great on wet roads. I'll never buy another set of all seasons
the last tires i had were kumho ecsta asx and they are assymetrical and when i looked at the they were different on the right and left side.
I have the kumho's in 265/60/18 6000k on them now. So far been very happy with them. Cheap tire too!!
To me 36 psi seems too low. The tires just sit too low. I run 40psi all around on my KUMHO ECSTA 711's.
no way man i had the khumo 712 xtas and they SUCKED!! they didnt get traction at all, they just wheel hopped everytime off the rip. then i get new wheels and tires, with Nitto's on them... and i havent had any wheel hop. they get great traction, instead of hop i now get the little squall.. but the car is moving not sittin still beatin the crap out of my car.
