Verry nice grip on wet and dry with short breaking distances. Bought this tires blindfolded as there were no reviews being new releases and replacing PS71. As for now I would recommend them.

3 out of 4 brand new tires were out of round. Impossible to balance, a lot of vibrations at highway speeds. Apparently common issue with Kumho. Otherwise it would have been great, the dry grip was great, seemed like a fun tire.

New tire without any reviews when i bought it. But Kumho is decent tires and PS71 have been doing really good i recent tests and i tought that the successor must be at least as good. I have zero regrets buying this tire. Its really grippy, responsive and fun to drive. The Michelin E-primacy i had on the car before was really boring and terrible wet grip, but would probably last longer than i could stand keeping them. The PS72 is really close to the Continental Sport Contact 6 i had on other cars before in real world driving. The only thing i dont know about is the wear. The tires is really soft and thats fun but time will tell how well they last.
At least when new - a perfect tire for the sporty daily driver!

Given 78% while driving a BMW 525D (275/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 1,000 spirited miles
I bought this tires only based on PS71 reviews thinking that there will be an improvement. I came from Continental PremiumContact 6 and until now I am satisfied with the PS72, the car feel stable and braking distance is good. Until now I drove only in city and motorway and the handling is nice. Being RWD, I have 2 dimensions on the car, 245/45 on front wheels and 275/40 on the rear ones.
