A.Q.

Have not had these tyres on long enough to properly assess (1000mls). However, had Goodyear on rears before they wore out after 15000 mls in two years, but the front goodyears are still good. Have tried these on the back as they are a harder compound which I hope will ware better. My car is four wheel drive, but with a Ally body so although a big car it is fairly light in weight. As writing this notice ware on inside of front goodyears ans has a bump so will probably change by the summer and most likely put Kumho's on front. Until you try these things you never truly know.

More worn winter tyre of a premium class stick to the road better than summer Kumho KU39 on dry road. Soft shoulders are not helping when aproaching bands, stronger braking - weak, especially on wet - dangerous. Raising the tyre pressure helps not much: maybe except the looks. I will never buy Kumho KU39 again.

After Ca 15000km I may make a clear recommendation. In wet and dry pavement very good handling characteristics
