Tires Tesla or Kumho

Kumho Tires

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.

Pros: quick tire, lives well
Cons: unsexy

Kumho Tires

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.

Pros: handle very well, not expensive
Cons: slight drop in EM mpge
Vehicle: MINI
Mileage: 12000 km

V730 are perfect. The wear like iron, are very predictable and most important for a track day tire- don’t have heat cycling issues.

Pros: wear like iron
Cons: no heat cycling issues

Kumho Tires

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.

Pros: decent grip, no wear issues
Cons: cheap, need to be careful

Replaced all 4 tires about 2 years ago. Have only driven about 18,000 miles since then and already, my tread is down two just 2mm. This thing chews through tires like I’m in a NASCAR race.

Pros: car still drives great
Cons: chews through tires
Mileage: 83000 km

Kumho Tires

The Kumho are crap in the rain. I was facing hydroplaning issues within a week of buying the car.

The did do it in a decently controlled way but I have not been impressed with the stock tires at all. Not to mention I have 20k on them and about 10% of tread left.

Pros: decently controlled way
Cons: crap in the rain, hydroplaning
