Tires Kumho or Giti

Been really happy with the Kumho Ecsta PA51, as they are a bit more frisky than my previous set of tires which were Conti DWS 06+… although I generally find all seasons to be disappointing.

Am montat Kumho si sunt multumit.

I love my Kumho AT52's. They're insanely well priced, have good wet grip - and make zero noise

Kumho tires turned out to be the best tires I’ve had in 25 years❗️

Locuiesc in Constanta si de vreo 6 ani nu mai avem ierni pline cu zapada. Maxim 2-3 zile apoi mai da cativa fulgi... Folosesc KUMHO si sunt foarte multumit. Se simte aderenta si nu am patit sa imi derapeze vreodata pe polei/zapada. Au si un aspect placut.

I have a 25 ev9 land on kumho's. Im at 31,000km and my tires still have lots of tread. I also have a very heavy foot

Eu personal folosesc un set de Kumho Solus 4S HA32 all-season pe un Opel Astra. Sunt per total mulțumit dar, în cazul meu, pare că deși sunt marketate ca “all-season” ele de fapt sunt cauciucuri de iarnă. Se comportă foarte ok pe condiții de vreme rece dar se uzează mult mai repede decât mă așteptam.

The HA32 has pretty OK performance for an all-weather tire, it placed mostly in the middle of the pack in this review. Wet braking performance is a little behind the competition.

I wore out a set of Kumho Ecsta 712's on my Miata in about 7.5K miles. Of course I was sliding the rears using the throttle to steer around curves on Highway 9 in California.

Tires (Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum) were installed 6/25/2024 @ 151,xxx miles (with receipts). Manufactured date is May 2023. Currently, car has 165,xxx miles. As you can see, the two front (now rotated to rear) tires are bald! The other two tires have a normal amount of tread remaining however. I was running about 1° of camber front and rear, and explains why the inside is more worn, but doesn't explain the overall accelerated wear that occurred only on the fronts. I also have an alignment report showing only the front left Toe is out of spec (-0.39° measured vs. +/-0.08 spec).

In my opinion, this would fall under the warranty via excessive/premature tire wear, but of course I imagine any shop would fuss about the lack of rotation. To make matters worse, I purchased and installed these tires at Walmart, which I'm now learning isn't an authorized Kumho installer and Kumho's warranty form says they must be installed by an authorized installer. However, Walmart's own listing for the tires says it's covered by a 50k mile tread life warranty (see last photo).
