Tires Toyo or Kumho

Late last year Toyo had a special running at my local Firestone store. My company told me how much I could spend. With the special I could afford tires I wouldn't have even looked at before. I tell you what. My little CX5 rode as good if not better than my Large Acura MDX. It's so smooth and quiet it threw me off the first long trip I took. I've had them for 5 months/25k miles and they feel as good now as they did when I bought them.

I’ve had good luck with “value” level Kumhos and Generals. Currently I drive a used BMW with over 300hp that came with budget Kumhos. They were brand new so I kept them. When they wore out I replaced them with expensive Continentals. I absolutely noticed the difference in quality

For good budget tires that last over 2 years and have ok performance for the weekend enthusiasts… Toyo Extenza HP are the way to go…. Had mine For 2 years and still have meat…and much quieter than the Nexen….

My personal experience with Kumho is that they make good value for money tires. I'd get them. They score decent in tests and seem to last long wich results in quite low running costs.

I agree with the Crossclimate II review. Had them for 2 winters now, and they grip just as good as the Toyo observe GSI5 winters I had, while being quieter and smoother.

I have had great luck with the Toyo Open Country A/T III on my 2500HD Silverado. We pull our 5th wheel everywhere. They are relatively quiet and have the load rating we need and good tread for a light all terrain.

I actually just grabbed a set of Kumho solus 4s all weather for Canadian driving and I absolutely love them on my awd suv! It was between those and the falcon wildpeak AT trail …both had great reviews so I went with the Kumho because slightly cheaper and I think I can see myself buying these again

I replaced my Proxes with Kumho Ecsta PA51. They feel more comfy, but feel like they have a bit more road noise.

I run Open Country 3's on my truck, and these tires are just too loud. They do not like the Arizona freeways, highways, and any asphalt road. When I do get on dirt, it is best, but there are too damn loud in my book.

I would say you could buy a few thousand large rubber bands and apply them to the wheel to make a better tire than these Kuhmos. Absolutely garbage tire. They transmit way too much vibration from the road to the steering wheel also.
