Seriously guys the only Kumho tyre worth buying is the KU31 Ecsta SPT and its an AWESOME soft compound tyre for the money.


Dunno..... How good is your guessing




All I know is, the tyres were a hard compound, lasted thousands of miles, have more than 1/2 their life left. Gripped ok when warm in the dry, but in wet it was more "dabble" the throttle instead of push it


The ones of the left are KH11.. A regular summer tyre.

The ones on the right are not Kumho.

I had Kumho's on my VTR. They came as a part of the wheel package with my Pro Race 1.2's. As I said already, good grippy tyres in the dry, shockingly bad in the wet. I did not feel comfortable, or safe at all around bends.
