my 205/45/17 on a 9 in front. Don't run a 40 series, the a 205/45 Falken 512 is just as small as a 205/40 of any other brand. the tire is just that small. Trust me.

Pros: small tire
Cons: run a 40 series

Kumho Tires

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

Pros: grips good in all weather
Cons: LX platinum bad in snow

Kumho Tires

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.

Pros: amazing grip in the 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

Pros: great on wet roads

They are \"ok\" in the rain. They like to skate around a bit, but nothing major. Definitely manageable in non-downpouring conditions.

Pros: manageable in rain
Cons: skate around a bit

Anyone running Kumho Ecsta MX (ku15) from Tire Rack? I bought a set (225-45-17) for my Jetta and they are complete junk! They are so loud I sound like a garbage truck driving down the road. Upon stopping, the noise is even more unbearable. These tire corner like s--t!

Cons: loud, corner like s--t
