Honda EM1 Civic VTi R Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Kumho Ecsta AST KU25 given 70% (205-40-17-)
Driving on mostly town for 9320 spirited miles
I don't understand why there are so many people complaining about road noise. Yes they do create a bit of noise but its not that bad, the pattern on the tyre (from what I have read) is one of the worst for noise. My opinion is they are quiet enough and my car isn't the most insulated car either. Performance wise they were very good in dry, once they got warm they stuck very well and the car nosed in around round-a-bouts under power quite well. Wet conditions I would have to drive slow to prevent crazy understeer though. coming off the power and turning in I could get a nice controlled slide. (All canberra, Australia Roads)

Wear was not too bad I think I have gotten about 15,000KM out of them and they realistically have another 4,000ish KM.

I would buy these again but am going to try the KU31's next to see how they compare, I've been told they are better.
