are the Kuhmo ECSTA supra any good in the winter?? I need to upgrade my crappy balding toyo's but I want to make sure I won't be screwed in the Snow. I've hear a lot of good things about Kuhmos, but never anything about winter season. Thanks in advance.

kumho's are strictly summer tires. if u goto tirerack.com they have tire ratings, they are great for the summer and performance wise but you are better off taking of your rims and putting on basic wheels and winter tires for the winter

I put my Kumho 712's on in March on my 97 SE. Stock size and everything. I think I saw one mild snow storm and they were fine. I plan on keeping mine on even in the winter. As long as you take it easy you SHOULD be fine. These tires are great for the money. Handle great and good in the rain.
