Rating 5.0

This is new release from Kumho, so reviews were sparse with the exception of one from Germany. I have about 500 mi on the tires, they are awesome! I can get traction now WOT in 1st, they have a stiffer sidewall which makes them responsive and planted in corners. Further, the ride is quiet and smooth which is important to me for a DD.

Pros: responsive, planted in corners
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 805 km

Kumho Tires

I've had the previous Kumho Ecsta Sport on a different car for budgetary reasons. They were great for a few months, but I felt like they lost a ton of grip after 10k miles or so. Longevity was my only complaint, but it was for my daily so even without a ton of grip, I'd consider them a good buy for value.

Pros: good buy for value
Cons: lost grip after 10k
Mileage: 16093 km

Kumho Tires

I have the same year and trim and tires. Just went in today for the 30K check (30,500 miles), and I have 5/32 on the front, 2/32 on the back. I am planning on changing all four now, just debating which tires to get. I'll probably get the Kumho Crugen's again, as they seemed really quiet.

Pros: seemed really quiet
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 30500 km

Kumho Tires

After blowing out a tire on a particularly nasty pothole I replaced my stockers with a set of Kumho Ecsta PA51 XLs. These are a nice, reasonably priced set of ultra-high performance all seasons that I'd been running on my MR2 Turbo and been very happy with.

Pros: nice, reasonably priced

I have a set of proxes on my G37x and I honestly think they are one of the worst tires I have ever owned. They don't hold grip in corners and downright dangerous when it's wet.

Pros: great tread life
Cons: dangerous when wet
Vehicle: Infiniti

I bought cheap Kumhos once. Short life span and too slippery to drive on even though they still had some tread.

Cons: short life span, too slippery
