Kumho Ecsta Supra 245/50r/ZR16s [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] for wet road traction. I drive at a regular posted speed limit (70 mph) on a wet road and not even worrying about doing 180s or 360s on the highway. [img]smile.gif[/img] 85 bucks per tire, good deal!!<i>00\' NBM Firebird~T-5<br />60\': <b>2.29 sec.</b><br />1/4: <b>14.7 @ 95.5 MPH<br />Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for me.</b></i>Comment

The Kumho's are good, but you have to be real careful about treadwear. If you can get a good deal on tires, I'd say go for the BF Goodrich G-Force KDW, they're normally expensive, but since you can get a good deal that's what I would look into. The Kumho's are definitely the best for the money though.Comment

Overall how is the treadwear on Kuhmos, I am going through my current set of tires in about I guess 16 months.Comment

I dont know but the P245/50R16 Kumho 711s (not the 712s) are $55/ea and have a better treadwear than the 712s. They have a BFGoodrich/SP8000 like pattern and seem to be well admired. I intend on getting a set. At $55/ea if I get 20K out of them I'll be really happy :D2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

I went threw my Badyear 235-55-16 in about 7 months.....I would never put on badyears tires on any of my cars. Every time I do they burn up. (Junk) Now BF on the other hand...Is the way to go. Handling is great. Tread wear is good. No problems ever... Except for nails. lol
