WOW! What a difference from the Michelen Pilots. Even when the Pilots were new, they did not grab like these Kuhmo's. For half the price of the Michelin PS2's, it is hard to believe the performance of these tires. For safety reasons alone, these tires are worth considering! Maybe these tires should be renamed "STICKIES" :2tu:

I run them on the front of my stock wheels for drag racing and auto-cross. I was really impressed with how well they performed. They are priced nicely as well.

For the price, I don't think they can be beat. I recommend them to all with 17"s (if money is tight). Too bad they don't make them in 18". When/where did you get them. These have been on B.O. for months haven't they?

I have these on the '96 GTS I just bought. At first I thought I had a low HP motor since it didn't break the rears loose easily on the 1-2 shift. Now I understand why.

Enjoy those, because you can't buy the front sizes any longer. :( Went to Nitto NT05s from the XS. Waiting for it to really warm up and see how those hang.

You can still use the 315/30/18 on the front, I know where there are some 345/19 rears if you want some.
