Tires Kumho or FEDERAL

I like the Kumho Crugens that came on my ‘23 as OEM. AT 14k miles the seem to be holding up well, though the rears are showing slightly more wear than the fronts.

I've gone through at least 5 sets of 651's over the past 4-5 years of daily driving and autox (07 scion tC & now a 17 BRZ). as a budget tire, really can't complain for learning without breaking the bank.

I have Kumho winters and have zero complaints about them.

I really like the federal command tires, they were an amazing price (around 60$ for 2). They also have a very pronounced grind protection lip on the side wall. On a super hot supper day they have amazing grip and wonderful feedback.

My only complaint is because they are a slick tire, you get amazing rolling, but the second there is a dusting of sand on a hard surface you can slip out pretty easy.

Take a look at the kumho ecsta pa51. I got a set this summer and am happy with them. Plus they were very affordable.

2020 Elantra SEL with the Kumho TA31s I currently have 64,700 miles on the stock tires… So far they’re good tires I think.

Full tread they were good in the rain but definitely left something to be desired once they got below half tread.

Khumu Solus: 60,000 mile tread warranty. About $115/tire. Hard to tell on efficiency because it also got super cold right after I installed them, but they seem fine, and for the price and tread warranty, I will take a minor efficiency hit.

Kuhmo TA31 is used as OE on some vehicles. It’s been ok in all season performance but absolute garbage on snow.

Had bad experience with Kumhos. My Kumhos got a sidewall bulge last year.
