Reviews of Kumho tires

I ran the Kumho XS (250/50 15 on a 2006 Mazda 2) last summer and found them to be fairly comparable to the superceded Bridgestone RE01R, albeit much cheaper. I did 4-5 autocross sessions on them on top of 'spirited' drives in the local mountains every weekend. My fronts lasted just under 3000 miles to slick and the rears around double that, but I do have a fairly aggressive alignment.

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 have the LX Platinums on my GLI. After 20,000+miles, they show little wear. Handling is definitely noticeably worse than the original summer tires, but not awful. Winter traction was surprisingly good.

I have the KH16, and they have the worst wet weather traction I have ever encountered. I have them on a Pontiac Grand Prix.

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 the Kuhmo Road Venture APT KL51 235/60. I was very happy with them until I realized the fronts are shot after 20K mi. I probably ran them under inflated a bit for too long. And never rotated them =(. The taller than stock size makes zero noticeable difference on the speedo or power on the road. My speedo matches my GPS reading exactly. Clearance is no problem.

i bought 2 new tires Kumho KH16 on tirerack.com... i drove the car few miles and i noticed that the car was pulling slightly to the left in city ...i drove on the highway ..same thing the car was pulling left ...if i let the steering wheel straight, the car was changing of lane.... yesterday i switched my 2 front tires side to side ...and now THE CAR IS PULLING RIGHT !!!!

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.
