Default Any yay's or nay's on Kumho tires?

I just ordered a set of rims for the wife's ride. They came wiht some Kumho ASX's I believe, 17". Anyone have eny experience with them. Every site I go to to get specs re-directs to one site that doesn't have any specs, ha ha.

It seems to be a directional tire, they say its around 40k warranty. Thats about all I know. I guess if they will make it for a few years of mild driving they are a plus.

I ran with Kumho Ecsta Supra 712 tires that were rotational (when I had 17's) and Kumho all seasons (not-rotational) off of my old 14's. I loved those tires and I plan on getting Kumho's next time and replace my tires.

Should be OK for normal driving but I wouldn't use those for ***** to the wall driving or anything. If they're all the same size do the front to rearswap every 3 months or so and they should last for a while.

I got the ASX, I assume thats the lower end, probably.

I guess I will try em out for a year and start throwing a different tire on after that. I love Toyo's personaly, but this place didn't have but 1 version of the Proxes. My 16" Proxes tires are very impressive.

Thanks for the info.
