I gots 'em...!

They're pretty sweet. Nice and sticky, track well in the corners, good in wet conditions. Pretty quiet. I've had mine for 6K now. CHEAP! I should say "inexpensive" Overall, I love 'em. They have to be one of the best deals out there. Not to mention they look pretty bad-***!

I've got a set of 17" Kumho's...i've had 'em all summer and can't find a thing wrong with them. For the price i'd definately recommend them....they look sweet on the rim too!

I just got a set for my stock rims to AutoX in...

I'll try them out for the first time on Sunday. I am only oging to use them for autox to save my street tires form the horrible wear caused by AutoX.

I'll let you know how things go this weekend.

I'm p[laning ahead as I always do. I just may Own a SENTRA SE 2.0 5spd in the near future and was tire shopping for 205/45/17s. The Kumho was the only one that look even up to the task. So considering I know KUMHOs rep with Road race tires, I was about %65 sold on the street Zrated series.
Thanks for the PUSH!

i plan on gettin' me a set of Khumos next time around.. but tired rack has a sale on AVS Intermediates (what i have now) for $100 in 235/45Z17.

which will put it at the same price as khumos..

my AVS ints were great at the beginning, but now they just have no wet weather grip whatsoever.. and it rained today. so you know how it went.. slip slidin' peelin' out by just tappin' the gas. :/
