Tires Kumho or Firestone

I have had the Winterforce ones for a couple years now. They seem to be good tires.

Kumho tires are a decent brand.

I would agree with another poster that they are a good mid-tier brand. In that range of tires, you generally pay less and get very good performance.

What I’ve found is the mid tier brands usually give something up to the top tier brands like Michelin. For example, if you get a performance tire, the Kumho might have dry grip that is as good or better than the Michelin, but maybe the tire doesn’t last as long or isn’t quite as good in the rain.

The differences tend to be small, though. And the price premium you pay for top tier brands is usually a larger percentage than the difference in performance.

The best option is the Kumho Ecsta PA31. That's what I run in the cool months.

Owned two sets of kuhmo LX Platinum excellent budget tire very quiet got 45k miles with a few rotations still didn't hit wear bar when changed. I will say not good at all in any sort of snow.

Not low grip but sticky in yet durable and fairly quick is the Kumho Ecsta V730.

Shit for we weather tough, to be fair

We went with Kumho Crugen tires when it was time to replace the stock Yokohama Geolanders. Its probably been 20K miles and they have been great. Quiet and the car handles the same.

I just put on Kumho RoadVenture AT and have had no complaints. CO just got hit with a pretty good snow storm (as least 6 inches) last week and they did great driving in it.

Have um right now, not to bad. Quiet good in the rain there just a basic all weather really.

Firestone sucked for the majority of the season. Not only have their hard/soft offerings missed the mark, but they are now completely willing to show up with indestructible tires which are totally unsuitable for modern competition.

Kumho and theyre crap
