Kumho KU39 - User reviews

Kumho KU39 is great in relation to the price, I make a comparison with the Bridgestone Turanza with reinforced shoulder that I had before. Compared to Bridgestone who were tougher and therefore more accurate and more direct, more communicative, Kumho KU39 are a little bit softer but it will do. You'd like to go fo Kumho KU39 which have an excellent grip in all situations, except in the extreme, even if not checked every snow and ice, they have little grip on slush, but it's to be expected because they are summer tires. Overall: Kumho KU39 is a more than good tyre.

Good tyres for a great price! They are quiet and offer a reasonable grip in both wet and dry conditions. The only disadvantage is when I was cornering tight curves fast, I didn’t feel con-fident, because of the soft sidewall. Although they are perfect for normal driving conditions. I drove 2000 miles on them, and there is a minimum tread wear present.

I drive a Nissan Promer P10 2.0, Kumho KU39 for the car will do and probably suffice for larger engines. For me, the most important is grip on a wet road - Kumho KU39 meets this condition for this and is quiet so you might want more.

Good all round tyre for the price, quiet and resonable grip in the wet and dry. Only downside are the soft side wall's if pushing hard into a corner they don't inspire confidence ! but under normal driving conditions ok. After 2000 miles seem to be lasting well.

Tires przejeździły three seasons. Tread is about the most (5mm), but what happened to the rubber, brings to mind the summer tires 15. It is withered, it has a lot of small cracks, and worst of all, in the two tires (front axle) appeared 20 cm cracks along the grooves of the tread, making the tire unsuitable for use. I first met with such a phenomenon in 4 summer tires with relatively low mileage. Disappointment.

More worn winter tyre of a premium class stick to the road better than summer Kumho KU39 on dry road. Soft shoulders are not helping when aproaching bands, stronger braking - weak, especially on wet - dangerous. Raising the tyre pressure helps not much: maybe except the looks. I will never buy Kumho KU39 again.
