Tires Kumho or GENERAL TIRE

General or Kumho are what I've used on my w123s. Both worked fine and were relatively cheap.

I've never had a more tenderfoot set of rubber on any car and was really glad to have worn them out. Replaced with Kumho tires which ride like a noticeable harder compound/tire and have had no punctures since.

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.

I've driven the General Altimax Arctic and they were indestructible. They handled snow/ice very well in my FWD Honda. Since they're winter tires, I only drove them 1/2 the year for 6 years. At that age, they recommend replacing tires, but they were still performing great and had tons of tread life left, so I just left them on the car for the whole next two years. They handled both winters great and were totally fine in the summer.

i have a set on my 2011 camry. super quiet, great gas mileage, the tires have since been discontinued and replaced with the RT45, which i have on my civic. both are good, solid tires.

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

I also like General snow tires. I’ve personally used general 365aw on cars and minivans with no complaints.

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.

I used to run Kumho tires on my 99 SE-L maxima when I was in my early 20's they were decently performing tire. I pretty much only ran their UHP summer tires though. As a brand they've been around for a long long time, they are probably upper mid-range tires depending on the type you have.

With that said the General Grabbers were my least favorite set of tires in terms of their noise and grip while cornering.
