Tires Kumho or Firestone
We fitted Kumho Wattruns to our last Leaf, twice, and have also put them (Ecsta PS71s) on our Polestar2 a few months back. Reasonable performance, great price and good mileage based on the Leaf's first set (>40,000km).
Eu mi am luat Kumho și nu ar putea fi mai mulțumit.
Kumho are solid and great value. With studs those things are going to be savage !
Made in South Korea, and original equipment on Hyundai's and Kia's. I have been using them for years, excellent choice.
I've just got some Firestone all-season tires on mine. Nothing fancy. They did *surprisingly* well in a half-foot of snow.
I drive Firestone Firehawk Sport on my e53 amg, it’s really good tires, is it better then Michelin? No, but for the money it’s pretty good and does job well, never had an oversteer or understeer keeps to road really well.
The tires I currently have are Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s, which were on the car when I bought it. For my use case I generally like them, with one exception: wet weather performance. Even though moderate NorCal doesn't see too many rainy days, I've felt myself losing traction/hydroplaning on quite a few occasions. If it weren't for this issue, I could easily see myself just replacing them with another set of Firehawks and calling it a day
I am considering replacing my Kumho Crugen tires KL33 (30k miles) with Falkin wildpeak a/t trail tires on my 2018 Santa Fe AWD. The current tires seem okay but I have never really pushed them.
Do NOT buy Firestone Tigerpaws. Under the blue white wall protection is a 1" "whitewall" that the carbon in the rubber penetrates right thru. They are tobacco brown in just a few days. Garbage product.
My experience with Kumho was once the top layer of the tire wore off (e.g. after a year), performance of the tire degraded. They must use a cheaper rubber underneath.
