You should look in tires/wheels section. There should be a thread about Kumho tires

I just put these tires on. The handling is very good but I have not yet tried it in the rain. For the Maxima size 225/50/17, its th best bang for the buck, and they look good. I just hope the tread lasts.

Tread will wear out faster than other leading brands

In any event, I like them a lot more than the impotenzas it came with.

Yes - better dry traction than Potenzas, much, MUCH better wet traction. They handle as well as the Yokos and Michelins I've had on my previous Max. They are a bit noisy, and a bit stiff, but nothing to complain about.

The tread is wearing more quickly than expected, but the problem is on the front tires...on a 2k3 Max...
