Tires Kumho or Shinko

I decided to swap the OEM Kumho tires for a set of CC2s with just 350 miles on the car.

My butt sensor says the CC2s ride a lot more softly than the OEM Kumhos. The ride feels more compliant and less sharp over potholes, expansion joints, etc. I find the CC2's ride to be noticeably better than the Kumhos. The CC2s also solved 90% of the steering wheel vibration issue.

I have kumho tires on my car. I bought it brand new in 2020 and they are just getting to the point where I will probably need to replace them in the next few months. I have 39,000 miles on my car so I guess that's pretty good for a mid-grade tire.

I got the KU22 all seasons on my 4th gen 3 sedan a few weeks ago and its pretty nice. Not that much road noise, good grip.

I’ve been running Kuhmo from Walmart for nearly 2 years and they’ve been awesome!

In that size, and I know because I run the same, is the unsexy (and unbothered by it) Kumho Ecsta V730. Good tire, quick tire, lives well with the heat, takes abuse from camber limited cars, and is the cheapest super 200 out there.

I change from then OEM hankook ventus2 to high performance all season Kumho Ecsta PA51 and I love the,. They handle almost as good as the OEM summer performance tires but are much safer in winter, even though Texas winters aren’t terribly cold it does snow here and does drop,below freezing. It’s simply unsafe to drive summer tires below freezing. The kumhos handle very welll to and they are not expensive. And highly recommend.

Replaced my oem kumhos at 35k. Replaced them with Phantom CSports. ($850 for the set). No complaints and the range doesn't looked to be effected by more than a few miles.

I've had cheap Kumho ECSTA AST's. That you get what you paid for, when money is tight. Their ECSTA Platinum LX was a much better tire, and actually didn't have wear issues which the PQ46 chassis is known for (feathering). Decent grip.

I had to replace all 4 Kuhomos at about 12k as I blew two out. Now sitting at 24k and they’re almost halfway worn on one set.

That’s probably the number 1 thing I research when I buy tires now, I hate the loud hum some tires get as they wear. I’ve had two sets of Kumhos and I won’t be buying a third.
