excellent quality / price has 27000kms forward with a rather nervous behavior and still not changed in the back More 3000kms. a noted change in the front as smooth on the two sides of the tire but still slightly above the witness on the tread I increase the pressure of 300g tire compared to originally see the new mounted train.

Very loud tyres. After 4000 miles they rumble like hell. Impossible to drive.

Kumho KU31 are not very quiet - after ca. 5000 miles their noise became significant. I bought them about 3 months ago and at the beginning everything was just fine. Unfortunately, after driving a short distance the tyres start to produce very loud rumble. After the inspection it turned out the tyres feathered. The noise in the car is unbearable and is similar to a wheel bearing failure. Because of that, I completely don't recommend Kumho KU31 tyres and I warn everyone of getting those tyres.

Stable handling. Nevertheless I'm a bit disappointed when it comes to the case of driving on wet.

Kumho KU31 behave very well on wet surface, except for water-flooded ruts. They also have the tendency for unacceptable swerving in the corners on dry - they are just too soft. They wear off quite fast. In my case, they quickly feathered, which resulted in high noise level and terrible driving comfort. Distance driven is 32 thousand miles. In my opinion, I find Kumho KU31 not very good, therefore I don't recommend them.

The average consumption (diesel) increased slightly compared to the tires that I had before (always runflat, but Hankook). However, it is also increased traction on the road. Tires in line with the characteristics shown on the label. Excellent value for money.
