Tires Kumho or OEM FORD

V730, Conti ECF, hankook RS4 is the way to go for endurance 200 and or less $$ per lap

I wish they still made Kumho Ecsta XS. Those were awesome and cheap.

Kumho is a better performance than the defender but defenders are still great.

Khumo v730 - Not as bad in the wet as you might think. Would still be cautious though. And honestly I see this tire being dailied as situational. it will depend on drive train the area you live. If you live in Louisiana or something and it rains all the time I may not have gone with this tire. If you're in Arizona then I'd say this may be the best tire to daily. My area this is the rainy season so it will only really see rain when it's new. My Last event was everything this tire hates cold and wet. About 42 ambient with a wet track. And yes they felt like power wheels tires at times but I never questioned them they still communicated well. And IMO the way this tire communicates is the highlight of it. It's hard to explain, but it's just so clear in what it's doing. If you sim it's like this tire dialed in my FFB setting. That is the best and only way I can think to describe it. They are a chatty tire in the best way possible. Even just road driving them ugh Im in love with these tires.

Am avut KUMHO ECSTA PS71 205/60/16 (de vara) timp de 3 sezoane pe masina si am fost foarte multumit de ele, modelul asta pe 16” tin minte ca statea bine pe teste, m-am documentat destul de mult cand le-am luat.

Am trecut anul trecut la jante pe 17” si am luat tot Kumho, de data asta all season SOLUS 4A HA32+ (225/50/17). Desi nu am fost niciodata fan all season, am ajuns sa fac maxim 10k km pe an cu masina si dupa ultimele ierni am ajuns la concluzia ca bataia de cap e prea mare cu doua seturi separate. Le am din august pe masina si sunt tare multumit si de astea.

Am avut kumho ecsta ps71, si au fost ok timp de 3 ani.

I find Kumhos Start going really hard as soon as the first few mm come off. Great for longevity but not great for ride and grip after first year.

I heard Kumho don't last very long, but are good for the first 10,000 miles and not good at all by 30,000 miles.

I bought cheap Kumhos once. Short life span and too slippery to drive on even though they still had some tread.

My KUMHO tires on my new KIA EV9 are totally bald after 16,000 miles. I suggest that KIA stop using KUMHO tires on their EV9 - why spoil an awesome car with useless tires.
