Tires Kumho or PHANTOM

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.

Just bought these at America's Tire (same company as Discount Tire) and couldn't be more happy with their service and the tires. Better than the Kumhos and the car doesn't shudder any more when coming to a stop on loose ground. Ours was 30 minutes away and worth it.

I switched my '25 Turbo to the Kumho Crugen HP71's and am very happy with the increased sound insulation and performance. Much better in rain than the Toyos I had (which developed a giant bump on the side wall 3k miles in).

This is new release from Kumho, so reviews were sparse with the exception of one from Germany. I have about 500 mi on the tires, they are awesome! I can get traction now WOT in 1st, they have a stiffer sidewall which makes them responsive and planted in corners. Further, the ride is quiet and smooth which is important to me for a DD.

I ran V730s for the entire year last year on an STU M340i xDrive. It's a heavy car that can really put heat into the kumhos and the awd helped with v730's abysmal traction. It is as fast as the big 2 in the tight corners however judging by my GPS and accelerometer data.

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.

Seeing as I am preparing to have to swap them out at 30,000kms I would say they may be one of the worst tires on the market. I do have them (stock) on my EV9 which I have driven relatively gently. Reached out to their warranty department and they refuse to work with me. I don't really want to spend 1500 on a product that drastically underperforms.

In my opinion Kumho tires are not a good option, they are not cheap and not very good either. Mines started coming apart at 24.000 miles in a brand new Audi Q5.
