...any good?

Tyre bloke has recommended these for the Celica. At £87.50+vat a shot, thats >£400 for a full set and I'd like to know if they're worth the price.

If not I'll whack some more Falken FK452s on for £220 again :D

Not heard anything on the zv5s. I had zv3s on the cav - i thought they were pretty good - but quite soft, only lasted 7k.....

PROOF or face a months sin bin :p

the KU31 is a really highly rated tyre for track/road use by the homosexuals that drive VElises :D And Mr Ad seemed to get good results from his on a nova.


I wouldnt fit any other Kumho road tyres though (track stuff yes) as yes they are ditchfinder crap, but the KU31 is a gem in the lineup, plus uber cheap

Ive only ever experienced ecsta supras and as theyre budget tyres i assumed that kumho were a budget brand, the supras are fairly good in the dry but we never have it dry all the time and theyre really bad in the wet so i based my judgment upon those, sorry stu lol

I did have the tyre fitter say " why do you want those, they are budget crap" when I called to order them in. Meh I love them!!! tons of grip in the wet and dry, nice and progressive on the limit and wear everso well.

As Stu said, ku31s are highly rated. They are cheaper than Nankangs too!!!
