After the warranty period on 2 of 4 purchases made my blisters along the tread. One after another, an interval of 2 months. Of course, I had time to buy a new one (if I knew that the way the series at once would buy the other). They did not meet with the curb or hole, so just to be spoiled. I do not recommend. I did not buy them in OPONEO, so a zero pretensions to the store if something;]. Moreover: the dried adhesive in a kind of look good, are not particularly loud. If not for failures that would be ok and so ... In addition to the recently purchased already is in contrast to the old, made in china, so ...

Kumho KU31 look nice on my alloys. The ECSTA mark on the tyres looks very effective but it wears off after a few thousand miles (on the drive axle). Very quiet tyres, they drain the water from under the car like crazy. Perfect sports-class rubber compound (only the best tyres have a compound with the addition of silica). I am very pleased with them. Kumho KU31 are underrated but they are frequently used in Dakar trucks and in the US. It's worth to look through Kumho offer. They have a huge variety from slicks to go-kart tyres, car tyres and terrain tyres.

I have my Kumho KU31 tyres in the size 225/55R16. I bought them because they have good resutls in the tests, and they are cheap, compared to Michelin. At first, I bought two tyres for the front axle. Comapred to my previous Sunny they are way better. After two months, I bought another two for the rear and it was there where I got a bit disappointed. At the speed of 95 MPH the whole car shakes. I got the wheels re-balanced three times, but with no avail. It turned out that my two new tyres were faulty and I got two new ones. Now it's fine, but I was nervous for some time due to that. I can say thar Kumho KU31 are very good in the rain - you don't hear anything, they cut through the water nicely. I don't know if I buy Kumho KU31 again in a year or two after such trouble, but overall I can recommend them. Kumho KU31 are good tyres for a decent price.

I needed a specific width of tyre 195/40/17 For st to clear the arch and strangely not much out for choice , I normally use toyo t1r So I have to compare these to them , wet grip is much better then the toyo’s. Also less noise when driving , dry grip is really good once warmed , I think these have stronger side walls then the toyo’s , which is good , overall really happy with them I would recommend

Awesome tyres. Awesome properties! I made a lot of miles on them and they look exellent on my alloys. Kumhos KU31 behave exemplary. Now I'm wearing my 3rd Kumho set. I used KH11 and KH15. I was never disappointed. For winter I use Kumho KW17 - just splendid

Very good tyre in dry conditions. Kumhos KU31 are very silent, they stick to the road realy well, I dont have any problem while driving on them. Its a bestseller in U.S. They met my requirements. Recommend.

I used to wear Kumhos k15 but they were used to much. I bought new KH11 ECSTA 91V and i felt the difference. They are just splendid. I realy recommend them. Great tyres for great price but you have to look for a good offer.

There is no comparative testing of these tires with the leaders. But I think they are OK. They hold up well even at fast cornering. On wet surfaces also been problems. I have two cars on the same tires and I have no objections.
