Tires Kumho or VITOUR

We have a 2023 AWD Pro S with the same tires. We just replaced at 30k. They probably could have gone another 5k or so, but one tire had a slow leak and they wouldn’t even try to repair it due to age of the tire. We got the same tires again at Discount/Americas Tire because they seemed fine

Having run a C6Z06 nationally, I know the struggle of having wide wheels and not a lot of tire choices. If I were still running it, I'd look at the Vitour P1s.

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

Running them on my VW. 245/40/17. 2 autox and a track day and just worn off the sword fish in the tread.

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.

I am super sensitive to sound so road noise is a priority for me. I also had a ****ty experience with the Goodyear Comfortdrives on my Sienna and think those might have been part of why I hated that thing. They got stupid loud and rough riding with more mileage. Similar experience with the RSAs that came on my TLX. Never buying Goodyear again. I dont know how much heavy lifting the car is doing but the Kuhmo Crugers on my ID4 have been dead quiet after nearly 10K miles. They seem to be wearing OK as well. I have no idea how they will do in snow and I'm pretty sure they suck traction wise. But it might be worth looking into EV tires. Low rolling resistance should equate to low noise, though I can't speak to ride quality. ID4's ride is a little choppy but I do keep pressures up for more efficiency. It smooths out on the highway so it might be a German suspension thing.

Overall happy with my Kumho Roadventure AT51 on my F150. Not the best on pure ice, but only real complaint on the F150 is they don’t seem to last as long as I’d like, but I run them all year and I’ll get equivalent of about 30,000mi out of a set, heavy truck, all year, towing, winter, mud, highway, you name it - and a lot of roundabouts in my neck of the woods which is apparently known to be hard on them… from chatting with buddies I get about 90% of the kms they get on a set of BFG KO2, but they cost about 20-30% less typically, and are quieter, and seem roughly equal capability otherwise.

Some Kumho winter tires or someshit. Had them almost a decade ago and only went 1 winter on them before I said fuck it and bought Michelins.

I think it’s gotta be the Kumho all seasons I have on my DD right now, they have absolutely zero grip even on perfectly dry warm roads
