The three year old car came with half worn Michelin tires however the pressure warning sensor kept being triggered. So I decided to try replacing the tires. Four of these tires fitted for just over £200 seemed a good deal. In fact I've been really impressed by these tires, they seem better than the Michelin's. Cheaper, don't trigger the pressure sensors and only 1mm of wear in 7000 miles. These tires also slightly improved my mpg.

Given 70% while driving a SEAT Ibiza TSi (185/65 R15 H) on mostly town for 2,000 spirited miles
Reasonable OE tires that came with my Seat Ibiza MY2020. Nothing spectacular but certainly not bad. Unfortunately one of them got damaged and it was incredibly hard to get a replacement, availability is pretty bad at least where I live. I had to sell the rest and upgrade all 4 tires to an Efficientgrip Performance 2, seperate review on that one.

I bought these tires to replace some Goodyear Efficient Grip tires, as the price of those tires has increased substantially since I last bought some, probably 3-4 years ago. The Kumho's were significantly cheaper, but I had read good things about them so thought I would give them a try.

I haven't noticed any difference in performance compared to the Goodyear tires. The Kumho's seem to grip just as well in wet or dry conditions. One thing I can say is that the car rides much better over bumpy surfaces, the old GY tires were sometimes a bit crashy. The Kumho's are also noticeably quieter with less droning on certain types of tarmac.

I can't comment on how well they will wear as they have only been on two weeks, but I did get 3-4 years out of the old GY tires before they were ready for replacement, hopefully the Kumho's will last just as long!

So, overall I am impressed, the tires drive just as well, are quieter, and were significantly cheaper. When the back tires are ready for changing, I'll definitely get the same again.

Given 64% while driving a Vauxhall zafira 1.9 cdti 150 bhp (205/55 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 5,000 easy going miles
Had the new tires for a year now, original tires were bridgstone turanza. The first thing i noticed was how quiet the vehicle was with increased levels of comfort, especially when crossing speed humps, much more compliant. I undertake some long motorway journeys, monthly and recorded significant improvement to the fuel economy app 5/6mpg ( cruising around 65mph). Too early to comment on wear and tire life but it's looks promising.
i think they are good value for the money!

Huge difference compared to previous set, less noise, more comfort, still good grip in both dry and wet and great reduction of fuel consumption, almost 15% less than the old tires. Hope they will last for long, surely recommend.

Given 87% while driving a Subaru g3x Justy (175/65 R14 T) on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
Bought these tires x4 to replace some crappy low tier tires , i thought i would spend a little more this year (37euros per tire).
My car(basically a suzuki 1.5 ignis 4grip) has changed drastically in handling ,rolling noise and better fuel economy.
I cant really tell if they will last longer but turn in is sharper and grip levels are much better than the savas,infinitys and the original avons!
Well chuffed with these tires would deffo buy again!
