Kumho tires?
Anyone have any experience with Kumho tires? Specifically LT225/75R16
VENTURE AT KL78 OWL E. I have a chance to pick up 4 for $350 plus $90 shipping. Or should I just stop being cheap and get the BFG All Terrain A/T KOs (same size)? -- FRH |
Re: Kumho tires?
Never ran the Kumho's, but you just can't go wrong with the BFG AT.

Ditto. And there's something about a bird in the hand. And why weren't
these tires good enough for the seller?

Re: Kumho tires?
I always used to run Nittos on my Cobra, I tried Kuhmos the last time I
bought tires because they were considerably less expensive for the same tire. My experience was that they were pretty good tires. They were't as "sticky" as the Nittos but they did hold the road pretty well, didn't wear as fast and held well on wet roads. Keep in mind, these weren't a tire for a Jeep, they were low profile go-fast tires on a low slung hot rod,but all in all, I would consider them again for the same application IF I couldn't afford Nittos.

The AT is a decent tire, and the MT seems even better. The MT is a nice quiet tire considering the relatively aggressive tread on it.

Re: Kumho tires?
That web site has them rated higher than the BFG All Terrain T/A KOs.
And the reviews from users are very positive. Tomorrow I'm going to check prices at the local tire shops. If they're close I'll buy them locally.

Re: Kumho tires?
I ran a set of Kumho 13s on my VW diesel. They handled ok, but wore out
fairly fast comp-ared to other tires i have run, but I drive hard on mountain roads. They squealed on corners my firestones didn't. I would take tire rack's survey with a grain of salt, most drivers wouldn't know the difference, and new tires always are better than worn out tires. -- Stupendous Man, Defender of Freedom, Advocate of Liberty |

Re: Kumho tires?
Those tires are the "825" series. I'm looking at the KL78 line. A bit
more aggressive. The MT series is really aggressive, but since this is for my '04 TJ, which is my only vehicle, road noise is a factor. Also, since I'm retired, cost is a factor. And compared to what I'm using now the Kumhos will be a definite improvement. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA:IT&ih=014 It would seem the seller is a tire shop/auto accessory dealer. They usually don't get too attached to the items they're selling. :-) L.W. (Bill) ------ III wrote: > Ditto. And there's something about a bird in the hand.

Wasn't till he stopped for a pee break that he noticed something wrong. He had the wheel and tire inspected and the tire plugged and it still in service today.
