Swapped the 21’s and summer tires off my summit reserve for 18” XDs and Kumho Venture with a 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. Had 10” of snow and didn’t bat an eye in snow mode.
Kumho - superior value and great handling.
I've stuck with my BF Goodrich Comp A/S 2+. They stick like glue in all weather and dont make any road noise.
Kumho ecsta sport S. Huge improvement
I got 275 and use to have pirellis now I got kumhos they don’t spin as much as the pirellis from a straight dig I use to fish tail hard when my foot was deep in the pedal I recommend kumhos and falkens they straight
Try kumho tires korean brand and decent quality for its price, for my sedan its about 2.8k per tire
On my last car Michelin Pilot Sport 4S lasted ~20k but that's kind of expected due to how soft they are. On my current I have Kumho Ecsta Sport and they have lasted about the same but instead of wear being the issue they're cracking/tearing.
wife has Michelin Defenders on hers. I put BF Goodrich all terrain ta on mine.
I absolutely hate using the KO2's. They're a long lasting tire with a high load rating, but that's because the rubber compound is hard as steel. They're outright dangerous in wet and icy conditions.
Worn KO2s are known to have lots of siping, but for some reason the siping doesn\u2019t go all the way down and they\u2019re known for getting pretty bad in the wet/snow vs some other off road tires.
