Writing about the GT Radial SportActive 2 given 96% (225-45-18-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 50000 average miles
One of the best tire I ever used. Worth it for money. Especially wet drip and comfort

I had one of these fitted due to an unrepairable original tire. Old stock so the tire looks tarnished and had untrimmed rubber around the edges. For a budget tire these are acceptable to fit but don't look attractive even with the sidewalls armouralled.

Driving on mostly town for 9000 average miles
Replaced original tires which were Continental PC5. I like the look of these tires with the chequered sidewall. The front tires started to peel after 6000 miles and I put this down to the softer compound, driven on hot Malaysian roads. No vibration so decided to keep using them until they are worn.

Kia K5 original fitment. Front tires worn out in 19,000km. A mixture of highway and local driving. The rear tires are still good at 35,000km.

I bought this model. The brakes are excellent in dry and wet conditions. I will definitely buy this model again. My previous tire was Hankook prime2. Komho ku50 is better than that.
