Tires Kumho or Goodyear

Currently using Goodyear Weather Ready tires. They have been great so far. I find they are better than the X-Ice I used to have.

I haven’t looked at the Goodyear data myself, but I have spoken to people at Calspan, and I’ve been told that the Goodyear mu is “10% higher than the Hoosier stuff”.

Update: Got the tires installed today. I noticed a major drop in road noise. I was using 9yr old Kumhos, that sat in the garage most of their life. Other than that, no noticeable difference going from 225/40 to 225/45.

225/40/19 snows are what i run on the stock wheel, the Kumho Wintercraft WP72 is a killer tire for the money ($173 on simple tire)

Kuhmo Ecsta PS91 245/40/R18

Tyres: Kumho ecsta lx platinum

I swapped my OEM tires for summer tires (Kumho Ecsta PS31), they provide much more grip and are a bit quieter though since they aren't LRR (Low Rolling Resistance) I do lose about 10% on range.

I run Falkens, but used to run Kumho, and they wear pretty quick.........

The summer tires on my Mustang lasted a whole 12k miles - but they were staggered so they couldn't be rotated and were the worst tire ever put on at a factory (Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercars).

My experience with Goodyear is as an SA with BMW and VW. For a "high-quality" tire, they seemed to wear out fast and give unwanted vibrations sooner.
