Kumho KU31 have never let me down, so I don't look for any other ones. They are not very popular, probably because they are not as widely available and not as cheap as they were. I used to drive on quieter and louder tyres, but it's not a drawback for me. I need efficiency, and Kumho KU31 do the job very well. I am not surprised by its highest braking and wet performance indicators. They disperse the water wery well and on dry they behave great as well. I definitely recommend Kumho KU31 as a decent tyre.

I used Kumho KU31 for 3 seasons and now I buy the same for my new car. For me the best tyres for the best price.

Kumho KU31 are fantastic tyres. I've been looking for tyres at a medium price range, and as for me - they are sensational. I don't see any reasons to buy tyres from "top shelf", as these ones behave superbly. The only drawback is that they became quite loud after doing 22 thousand miles. However, I am generally satisfied with Kumho KU31 and I definitely recommend them to all drivers.

After the warranty period on 2 of 4 purchases made my blisters along the tread. One after another, an interval of 2 months. Of course, I had time to buy a new one (if I knew that the way the series at once would buy the other). They did not meet with the curb or hole, so just to be spoiled. I do not recommend. I did not buy them in OPONEO, so a zero pretensions to the store if something;]. Moreover: the dried adhesive in a kind of look good, are not particularly loud. If not for failures that would be ok and so ... In addition to the recently purchased already is in contrast to the old, made in china, so ...

I have my Kumho KU31 tyres in the size 225/55R16. I bought them because they have good resutls in the tests, and they are cheap, compared to Michelin. At first, I bought two tyres for the front axle. Comapred to my previous Sunny they are way better. After two months, I bought another two for the rear and it was there where I got a bit disappointed. At the speed of 95 MPH the whole car shakes. I got the wheels re-balanced three times, but with no avail. It turned out that my two new tyres were faulty and I got two new ones. Now it's fine, but I was nervous for some time due to that. I can say thar Kumho KU31 are very good in the rain - you don't hear anything, they cut through the water nicely. I don't know if I buy Kumho KU31 again in a year or two after such trouble, but overall I can recommend them. Kumho KU31 are good tyres for a decent price.

Awesome tyres. Awesome properties! I made a lot of miles on them and they look exellent on my alloys. Kumhos KU31 behave exemplary. Now I'm wearing my 3rd Kumho set. I used KH11 and KH15. I was never disappointed. For winter I use Kumho KW17 - just splendid
