I can comment on the Kumhos as I have the Ecsta Supras on my car in 235/40/17 size. They suck. I hate mine and hate the fact that I spent money on them. If I wouldn't take it in the shorts to sell them, I'd be riding on something else right now. Straight line traction sucks, even for a low profile tire. In a corner, I couldn't get it to plow more if I painted it John Deere green and drove through a corn field. Stopping is only adequate due to the shear size of the tire vs. weight of the car. My previous 225/50/15" Bridgestone Potenza RE71 on stock alloys were far superior in every quality. mad I guess the Kumhos have a cool tread pattern though :rolleyes:

Nice ride and very cool pics once again John! laugh
