Tires OEM BMW or Kumho

HS52 is pretty solid, given the recent balance between Kumho and Toyo I would expect it to outperform the Toyo.

For better handling and winter traction, I would consider getting wider tires.

I have used Kumho touring tires on two different BMWs and I thought they were great for a mid priced tire.

Have the Kumho Ecsta, standard fitted here in the Netherlands. Have to say they are very silent and durable. Drove approx 37k km with them. Have also Continental Premiumcontact winter/snow tyres. Not bad too.

I literally just got these installed last week and I am really happy with them. Way better grip and quieter than the stock falken tires.

Had Kumhos on my Celica for 4 years and they’ve been pretty decent to be fair, even wear aswell.

I used to run kumho ecstas on my saabs and they were great all seasons. Handle well in the dry and safe in the snow. Best tires I've had at that price point and they were good enough that i wouldn't bother spending more.

The Kumho's aren't that bad in noise, until you get to the halfway point, then it starts to get noisy.

Kumho tires don’t last, the rubber cracks out.

Kuhmo TA31 is used as OE on some vehicles. It’s been ok in all season performance but absolute garbage on snow.
