Tires Kumho or Firestone

Kumho Tires

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).

Pros: reasonable performance, great price, good mileage
Mileage: 40000 km

Made in South Korea, and original equipment on Hyundai's and Kia's. I have been using them for years, excellent choice.

Pros: excellent choice, long-term use

Firestone Tires

I've just got some Firestone all-season tires on mine. Nothing fancy. They did *surprisingly* well in a half-foot of snow.

Pros: surprisingly well in snow

Firestone Tires

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.

Pros: good for money, does job well, no oversteer/understeer, keeps to road well

Firestone Tires

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

Pros: good dry performance
Cons: poor wet weather performance, hydroplaning

Kumho Tires

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.

Pros: okay in Florida
Cons: poor snow performance
Mileage: 48280 km
Part number: KL33

Firestone Tires

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.

Cons: tobacco brown in days, garbage product

Kumho Tires

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.

Cons: performance degraded after wear
