Tires Kumho or Laufenn

I've run laufenn on a newish golf and they're decent.

Quiet, decent lifespan well priced.

Tyre ship guy told me they're owned by Hankook, kind of a Lexus Toyota thing i.e not brand new tech/materials and maybe a previous tread pattern.

Been happy with them and will keep using them.

I am using Kumho. Korean brand

Now I am running Laufeen with summer dunlops and I am blown away!

Laufeen has been the best tires I have had. I am about 15k miles in and they feel just as good as they did day on, if not better!

Kumho is top dog in the midrange right now, I’d go for them.

That said, I’ve had a good experience with the discount tire house branded “Rocky Mountain” tires. They’re 3 peak rated M/S tires. And road noise is not bad at all. I don’t even hear it. I have about 15k on them over the last year or so.

I do rate and recommend the TA51a, which carries a composite score of 62 in their "All Season Tires" testing category, just beating out the Falken Aklimate. The RT45, came in two spots above, at a score of 63 and again with their recommendation.

Also 215/55er gibt's von Kumho auch schon für unter 100€ das Stück, da würde ich jetzt nicht zu einem Fabrikat greifen, das im ADAC nicht über "mangelhaft" rauskommt.

730s are pretty disappointing as an autocross tire. They thrive on heat, but it’s hard to get them hot enough that they will work well for autox. They are awful in cold weather.

I have them on my sti. Theyre good on concrete and okay in rain. However absolutely trash on snow/ice. No grip around corners resulting in sliding not to mention having to be gentle and brake early.
