Tires Kumho or MRF

I have had mixed experience with Kumho. Had a set of Ecsta PA51 that were great. No issues and lasted a long time.

I have Kumho Roadventure tires on my Tacoma, I like them.

Wife had a set of Continentals on her GLE 350 and two rears had belt issue so had to replace and the same Conti’s were not available. We went with two Kumho Ecsta and they are solid.

I put a set on my 2006 Ram. LT, and I think the total was about $450. No problems, better ride than what I had.

Underated brand. I just went through my first set of v730s. I'll be buying them again this spring.

It's a well known website and has good reviews.

Kumhos are decent tires for smooth town driving. Not the top notch, but pretty decent.

Last week I got a flat tyre on my back from the office and found that this tyre on my 2-month-old Suzuki Fronx (Aug 2025 model) is no more usable. Found a chipped off thread grip on the driver's side tyre, which resulted in low pressure. Due to driving at that pressure, the side liner developed cracks, losing its pressure holding capacity. Commonly, it is a clear case of prolonged low-pressure driving. However, in my case, since the tyre always looked low on pressure, I made sure to check the tyre pressure at every gas station while refueling. Now I am running on a spare tyre and wondering if I should go for the same tyre (MRF Wanderer 195/60 R16) or another brand.

Trenutno vozim Kumho Ecsta PS71 ljetne gume nakon što 15 godina vozim samo premium gume i moram priznati da već nakon 6000km nije ista kao prvi dan i sad znam što znači premium! Kad padne mala kišica i krenem uz brijeg, ima wheelspin... na autu sa samo 150KS i 1700kg kvragu.

MRF is worst had same issue. They have lot's and lots of criteria my tyre had tread but still got rejected saying tyre had puncture. So can't replace it.
