Tires Kumho or PHANTOM

Kumho Tires

I've had the previous Kumho Ecsta Sport on a different car for budgetary reasons. They were great for a few months, but I felt like they lost a ton of grip after 10k miles or so. Longevity was my only complaint, but it was for my daily so even without a ton of grip, I'd consider them a good buy for value.

Pros: good buy for value
Cons: lost grip after 10k
Mileage: 16093 km

I have the same year and trim and tires. Just went in today for the 30K check (30,500 miles), and I have 5/32 on the front, 2/32 on the back. I am planning on changing all four now, just debating which tires to get. I'll probably get the Kumho Crugen's again, as they seemed really quiet.

Pros: seemed really quiet
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 30500 km

After blowing out a tire on a particularly nasty pothole I replaced my stockers with a set of Kumho Ecsta PA51 XLs. These are a nice, reasonably priced set of ultra-high performance all seasons that I'd been running on my MR2 Turbo and been very happy with.

Pros: nice, reasonably priced

Mine are 7 years old and the best tires shop in my town said that I still have 10-12k miles left on them. I decided to replace with the exact same ones though, since my car sits in FL sun whole days. They are excellent.

Pros: excellent tires

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.

Pros: affordable price
Cons: mangelhaft ADAC rating
Vehicle: Mercedes

Kumho Solus's. Bought them as an all weather tire for a backup vehicle. Reviews seemed mixed but decent overall and the price is hard to beat. They wore faster than winter tires, and didn't have near the same performance. Even with rotations, the tread was gone within 25000 km.

Pros: decent overall, hard to beat price
Cons: wore faster, poor performance
Mileage: 25000 km

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.

Pros: thrive on heat
Cons: awful in cold weather
