Tires Kumho or Sailun

Kumho are solid and great value. With studs those things are going to be savage !

Made in South Korea, and original equipment on Hyundai's and Kia's. I have been using them for years, excellent choice.

Sailung - amžinos, mesos ant jų bus 20 metų.

the only "cheap" tire na ok for me is sailun atrezzo r01.

Great tire on my maxima.. as good as the michelins i had on the same car . Half the price. Super smooth and quiet.

I went with Kuhmo Solus TA31 EV 215/55/17 and am very happy. Stock is 50 tall but due to rougher roads here and oncoming winter, I got a slight taller tire to better absorb road imperfections.

Leaving aside whether or not the mechanic should have changed them, the difference in quality and performance between Kumho and Bridgestone is negligible, virtually nil.

Not the best I've had in the snow but not the worst either. we generally take the truck camping, so have had instances of wet grass, mud and such and it works well. Very gooey mud is a problem. It's performed well on some very steep dirt road mountains in Arkansas, just keep up the momentum, but had pretty low slipping considering that particular road.

My only issue I've had that concerns me is they were not balanced properly. Didn't learn of that until I started bumping on the road, at which point some flat spots were formed.

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.
