Tires Kumho or Firestone
4 brand new oem Kumhos for my forte installed where right at $480 out the door.
They are very comfortable and quiet. But sidewalls are soft so this is not a sporty tire. Can't comment on threa dweare and winter performance as i have them for a month.
Replacement rear tyres wearing incredibly well (Kumho) and will likely do another 15,000 miles
I've had a FWD Corolla for 12 years and it has gotten me through the worst kind of storms in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and here in NL with Firestone Winterforce tires. I swear by them! I've gotten through conditions in snow storms that even big jacked up 4 wheel drive trucks got stuck in.
I got a set of Kumho EVO tires for my Model Y about 15 months ago, and they turned out to be a pretty substantial upgrade from the Continental ProContacts the car came with.
I have kumho ecsta ZR "performance all seasons" on my 97 986. I drive the thing pretty hard, not too many curvy roads around here but it handles good. I really don't have any complaints, I daily drive this car and another.
I do rate and recommend the TA51a, which carries a composite score of 62 in their "All Season Tires" testing category, just beating out the Falken Aklimate. The RT45, came in two spots above, at a score of 63 and again with their recommendation.
Also 215/55er gibt's von Kumho auch schon für unter 100€ das Stück, da würde ich jetzt nicht zu einem Fabrikat greifen, das im ADAC nicht über "mangelhaft" rauskommt.
I’ve had both tires on my Charger. The firestones are very noisy.
Got a new set of Kumho TA51a tires 6 months ago, 3K miles in, the tread depth was already down to about half, to 6/32 ", Wth with this tread wear?
I just do normal city driving, nothing crazy, and all 4 wheels are perfectly aligned.
