I change from then OEM hankook ventus2 to high performance all season Kumho Ecsta PA51 and I love the,. They handle almost as good as the OEM summer performance tires but are much safer in winter, even though Texas winters aren’t terribly cold it does snow here and does drop,below freezing. It’s simply unsafe to drive summer tires below freezing. The kumhos handle very welll to and they are not expensive. And highly recommend.

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.
I actually just grabbed a set of Kumho solus 4s all weather for Canadian driving and I absolutely love them on my awd suv! It was between those and the falcon wildpeak AT trail …both had great reviews so I went with the Kumho because slightly cheaper and I think I can see myself buying these again
Kuhmo arent bad performance wise i just dont feel like they last as long.
That’s probably the number 1 thing I research when I buy tires now, I hate the loud hum some tires get as they wear. I’ve had two sets of Kumhos and I won’t be buying a third.
I would say you could buy a few thousand large rubber bands and apply them to the wheel to make a better tire than these Kuhmos. Absolutely garbage tire. They transmit way too much vibration from the road to the steering wheel also.
