What's wrong with kuhmo tires?

^Maybe you do too much burnout.

My car came stock with kuhmos........I like them but I'm using Wanli tires now.....or sumitomo tires.....there pretty good too..

umm who ever disses u when u talk about Kuhmos means they're jealous cause they're too poor to afford them cause Kuhmos are and have been rated one of the top tire brands for performance next to big companies like Bridgestone and Michelin dood so I wouldn't say they're bad plus most out there use them too.

Kumho is the one of the most widely used tires in autox amongst hoosiers and falken. Street Touring classes typically use Kumho Escta MX and Falken Azenis. The Falkens has a heavier and more beefy sidewall but the Kumhos has better traction because they can handle higher temperature without getting greasy after every run... also they typically lasts longer. I have tried both the Falkens Azenis RT215 and Kumho MX and I could honestly say they are about even in comparison.

The Kumho V700 and V710 can be seen in many cars running street prep and up along side with Hoosiers and they do hold their own.

But as for the Kumho street tires, I have never tried them nor am I planning to. Reason being the Falken Ziex 512 are so damn cheap, unless they plan on doing a simple re-design and jacking up the price for those like they did with the Azenis.

I'm running Proxes 4's too I like them pretty well. They don't grip in a corner like my Yokahama's did before them. But they were a softer tire and wore out faster. Anyways. Robble-robble-robble

anytings better than wanli

wHY ARE WANLI'S BAD?....WELL I'VE ALSO USED SUMITOMOS and well they work fine for me.....and i've used Federals too.....i haven't heard NE thing bad about them.....

kumho's are a soft compound tire wheras Falkens are a medium to supersoft. the Azenis are a medium compound. the Ziex's are a supersoft compound. you get this usually according to the tire ratio, size, trac rating, PSI and and weight handling. Kumhos have a good trac pattern but with semi weak side walls.This allows for more flexing and allows the tire to turn with the car. Harder sidewalls keep the rim from "hitting" the floor or road.there are more things but blah i am getting a bit tired right now.

I have Kelly Sport tires... any good? H rating... w.e. that means

Kelly tires are the same as goodyear so yeah they are pretty good the rating you have ,if i remember correctly are limited to 108mph.


CB cleared it up for me so you can thank him.

lol. actually i read around that wanlis arent that bad, theyre Z rated

than you for clearing that up for me as well i was still thinking about it. the Honda has V rated right now hehe my dads tires are limited to S rated on the truck the Rolla right now has H, the 18's it had were Z as well.

don't be so sure about it. the accord has been modified and only once has it hit 155 and my father drove it but damn did it take a long after it passed 135 to hit 155. but it has hit it.

yeah i always get Z rated wanli's cuz well i get hooked up

besides tread life and wet performance, i cant tell the difference between a good or bad tire, the only other tires ive ever used besides wanli are whatever the hell the steelies came with (4 different brands)

what exactly defines a good tire?

I wouldn't buy a tire named after a fallacious hooker Cum-Ho

from my experince they are quality tires for a good price. didnt oyur mom teach you not to judge a tire by its name.

Yes sir

haha. :drunks: i'm sorry i am just very bored right now.
