Default Kuhmo Tire Question

Hey guys, I was wondering chat yon thought of the kuhmo tires for this car. I know that they aren't the stickiest, best performing tire available, but I am currently a little low on funds and it is getting time to get new tires. I am mostly using the car as a daily driver with some occasional spirited driving. I have used these tires on my old Mustang so I have a reasonable idea as to hour the perform, just wanted to see how the do on this car be for buying. Thanks.

I have them on my ride. They are better in the rain then the S02's but no as sticky when driving all out. They will last longer than the S02's and cost much less.

Some people love them, some hate them. I do not like them and will buy something else when the time comes. I am running 17 in the Supra's but I think the MX's are better!?

I will be running some sort of track tire on the street very soon.

Kumho tires are not that sticky as SO-2 but It performs very well too.
You can use it as 4 season performance tires.......
