Tires Kumho or BFGoodrich
Folosesc Kumho de ani buni. Extrem de mulțumit! Recomand!
Just bought these as I was in the market. I like them. A little more firm of a ride but not terrible. Price was right and I am KUMHO fan and that is who makes these for Discount. In summary if money is an object, good value and I would recommend.
Kumho is a well built tire from Korea.
the Kumho TA51 (assuming TA51a as it is the current production) is a well reviewed and tested very low rolling resistance tire, thanks to a silica-enhanced tread compound. Most reviewers and owners over time generally note a small INCREASE in fuel economy of 1-3 MPG.
I had two sets of the Kumho Crugen HT51 SL. I liked both times and they lasted about 40,000 miles each. Seemed low but they're snow rated so I know those don't get as many miles because the rubber is softer. They handled great in snow/sleet/ice and enabled my front wheel drive van to go through lots of winter weather driving.
This last set (third owned) pissed me off though and barely made it 18,000 miles even with proper inflation and alignment.
I went with Kumho, competitive pricing and I’ve had them on a few years now and 30k miles. Still looking good
They’ve always been great tires, wear well and have strong sidewalls, but they do sometimes not work great in wet conditions at slow speeds. For instance if you’re leaving a stop light you can easily break them loose. But at speed they have never failed me.
They are good tires. They are also completely over-rated, and over-priced.
Stay away from Kumho tires, I’m just a Dad with a Sienna for the family, but I had a Honda Fit I drove 4 miles to the office for work. Got a pair of Kumho 80k rated, thought would be the last I’d have to buy. Worn out at barely 21k on them, on a Fit that don’t weigh much more than a lawnmower.
No an EV but on an XF Jaguar 2 months and still slippy. Never again am I going to buy Kumho tyres.
