Is any one running Kumho tires on the rear?

 

[Chip]

I run them all around.

How do they handle on the street, I do not put many miles on my Viper so I am not worried about the life expectency but I am worried about the traction.

 

[THOR]

Spray swears by them.

I run my dialy driver DLM viper on 17" Kumho's all around and they rock. 1/2 the price of stock Michelins too... /images/graemlins/supergrin.gif

My last pair lasted me just as long as the Michelins due to the stickyness of them..

I had them on my vette and loved them...

I have read that Kumhos pick up more road debris resulting in more paint chips, is this BS or is it true?

 

[Mike Jones]

never heard of that ...My car was still chip-less when I got rid of it

I wish they'd release 18" sizes.

 

[Gerald]

I don't have any chips. I Put on the clear 3M tape in some spots on the fender wells and the front of the side sill. I did a hack job too. Wish I woulda took my time /images/graemlins/sad

Is tire rack the best place to purchase the 17"?

 

[Gerald]

that's where I buy mine everytime. Since I drive on street I never shave or cycle mine....

All 4 where like 700 or so..

UPS brought me a set 2 days ago , got em from John B this time. They are the best for street traction.

How many miles do you usually get out of the Khumho's?? I only got about 7,500 out of the one set I had.

I quit running them on the front, after 7000 miles the side sills and all four wheel wells are sand blasted. I run them on the rear only now.

 

[RSVIPER]

What type of Kumhos should I run for street use? I noticed that they sell different types.

 

[BigCarrot]

Come on 18" Kumhos!!!!

 

[Smokin]

with the SRT out now, Im hoping that 19" kumhos are going to be a reality soon.

 

[Manny_C]

That would be sweet.

7500 is good mileage for the Kumho tires.
