These tires are cheap and the quality is very good for the value, kumho became a important brand in my mind till I used them.

Bought the i20 from new with Kumho tyres. After 23500 miles, mostly dual carriage way and motorway, they still had 2 - 3 mm of tread left. Generally I found them very good, even in the snow! The only negative comment was the road noise. Running my second i20 now, fitted with Hankook tyres, road noise is definately reduced. Would I buy them again? Probably.

185/65 R15 came from Korea with my brand new Hyundai i30CW. After 20000 km you hardly notice any wear. Top marks for the tyres and for the car. Replaced only because my son of 18 wanted sport alloy wheels of 225 45 R17, maximum standard for the car... with Pirelli Zerro Rosso.

I bought these thinking they were the ecsta range.. So not off to a good start!! However I found they coped admirably compared against the conti's they replaced. The noise was down on the previous set and I felt assured in both dry and wet conditions. The sidewalls are on the thin side but you only feel it if you are cornering fast and I mean Fast! All in all a superb buy for the price. Would I buy them again??? Well.. they have a set the stadard for me at least as they remained consistent throughout their lifetime. I am only now upgrading to the Kumho KH31 so only time will tell if their bigger brother will perform better. KH15 solus a definite buy reccomendation for the budget buyer.

I think this tyre is a total average but very good for the money I paid for it (320 euros).

Had these fitted by a local garage had seen the kumho Solus KH17 get a best buy in Which magazine but they didn't have those in stock so I settled on these. Have driven with them on a 1.6 Focus Zetec. Not the most light footed of drivers and tyres grip well under hard acceleration and braking. Wet weather performance and general performance increases as the tyre block height wears down. Have also used these during the heavy snow and they provided good grip for both traction and breaking. Not a tyre designed for a performance saloon but a very competant and cost effective tyre for a family saloon. Have also used the KH17 which appears to be a very similar performance to the KH15 in the wet and dry.
