That time of year again :(

Have Kuhmo improved a lot then over the last few years? Last I heard they were down with Nankang.

Never actually had them myself, just going off what I heard in the past.

I'm currently running Continental contact 3, pretty poor from what I have seen so far.

Mates dad owns a garage and has recently started stocking Kuhmo tyres. He reckons they've improved a lot and they have a more premium range etc now, race teams are starting to use them (not that that makes much difference as I doubt you'd use those exact tyres :p)
 
unless i can get some vredesteins in my size im sticking to the kumhos

even when the porsche is on the road, thats going on kumhos
 
Kuhmo KU31s or Toyo T1Rs are probably the best bang per pound tyre for regularish cars atm.
 
Must say, I like the tyres after just getting them fitted, giving me a nice increase in grip over the junk that was on before.
Also like the improved cornering stability from downsizing the tyres a bit compared to stock :)
 
make sure you have the pressures right to get the most of them, im not sure what you drive but i recommend swapping them front to back after a couple hundred miles to make sure theyre properly worn in and off you go

as for the toyos, ive had those too. the kumhos are better in the wet and i dont remmeber having made a set of t1rs last more than 12k miles or so, but that was on different cars to what ive had the kumhos on
