Tires Kumho or GENERAL TIRE
I’ve had good luck with “value” level Kumhos and Generals. Currently I drive a used BMW with over 300hp that came with budget Kumhos. They were brand new so I kept them. When they wore out I replaced them with expensive Continentals. I absolutely noticed the difference in quality
My personal experience with Kumho is that they make good value for money tires. I'd get them. They score decent in tests and seem to last long wich results in quite low running costs.
I put General Altimax 365AW on my Volt and I love them. They are like winter level tires you can drive all year. They’re quiet and I didn’t notice an impact on the range.
Get general Altimax if you’re looking for good value
I just replaced my General Altimax 43s with Hankooks and I miss them. The General's were pretty decent in the snow and I had better gas mileage than I have now with the Hankooks. The only downside was they only lasted about 60,000 miles.
I have the General Altimax on my 2000 Toyota Celica GT-S, and they are always surprised to hear I have been about 60k miles on them and the tread is still viable to pass inspection etc.
I've got the Generals on my Jetta GLI. I had higher performance tires but kept getting bubbles on the awful New England roads. I'm pretty happy with them. You definitely give up a little bit of grip/road feel on dry roads but they're comfortable for daily driving and the value factor is nice. If you're looking for something that's going to suit you on a day-to-day or commuter type basis I'd recommend them.
I drive a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and ran a set of General AltiMAX RT43s to 64,000 miles (3/32” remaining tread). Replaced with RT45s a year ago (13k miles) and they still look new.
Nothing wrong with the Kumho tires but those are Z rated and ultra high performance tires. They won’t last long and will ride like an ox cart. But they will grip very well.
I've been disappointed overall in the tire.
