Kumhos? Their comp tires are ok, but not their road tires (IMHO).

There are better road tires available in the Kumho price range. If you want inexpensive, go with an oldie but goodie like the Yokohama AVS Intermediate!

I want somethign that last longer. I think Kuhmo out last the Yoko by 2x. I had Yokohama before, not really satisfy with them. I am more of a Dunlop person, but with the 8000, i will only last 2 months. I drive over 40K a yaer

The Kumho Ecsta does last a long time, but I hate them. Go ahead and get the AVS or something on sale. Will never buy the Ecsta streets again.

Now Kumho competition tires; that's a different story.

The Kumho has absolutely no grip; especially cornering grip.
