Tires Kumho or GENERAL TIRE

I have been running Generals for a few years now. The Exclaim UHP was replaced with the G-Max AS-03 a few years back. They have served me well. Longevity is not great, but traction per dollar has been good.

Yep, haven't ran those Falkens, but have run the Kumhos. On my 2nd set of the Evos on my summer wheels for the R, great tire for the money. It's no PS2 or Direzza, but I'm not a racecar driver either. And +1 running them a little higher on PSI.

I had the Kumho on my Fx45 before the current Kooks. Overall, I prefer the Hankooks since I feel the ride better, quieter, etc (maybe I am just getting old and need to trade in for an ES300). Plus the Hankooks come with tread warranty, no? The Kumho were a bit stickier but I felt they wore a bit prematurely.

I am currently running a set of studdable (but not studded) General Altimax Arctic tires. They are phenomenal in the snow. A tad loud at 80+ on the highway in the dry, but very good overall in the wet/dry.

I am now using General Tire Altimax Arctic and they are nearly as good....not as 'fine' of a ride as the nokkians, but nokkian is high quality rubber and the price reflects that.

I ran those Kumhos on the Volvo 850 Turbo I had, I liked them a lot. The only downside was being that the car was heavy, you could feel the sidewall flex in hard cornering, then again they are a sport all season and not a true summer tire so I think they fit the bill nicely.

I like my Kumho's 205/45/16's, I have about 15,000 mi. on them, still alot of meat. There 2 yrs. old still looks new. They cost me $125 per tire.

I had the General Altimax HP's on my X3 and they were a way better than the Conti's they replaced. Every set of Conti's I've ever had make way too much noise. :thumbup::thumbup: on the General's

I have the LX Platinums on my GLI. After 20,000+miles, they show little wear. Handling is definitely noticeably worse than the original summer tires, but not awful. Winter traction was surprisingly good.

I have the Kumhos and I don't like them. They are quiet, and seem to last forever, to my chagrin. Personally, I'd rather trade a little tread life for more performance, but they might be what you are looking for. A word of warning, though: they break loose pretty easily when it's wet.
