These tires are awesome!!!

I HIGHLY recommend to anybody who uses their car in places other than the track.

These tires are a great all-around tire so far. Excellent snow performance, too. It's like driving a different vehicle.

I guess we'll see how long they last.........

I have been selling Kuhmo's for a couple of years now with total sucess! They are priced very reasonably and handle great. However they are kinda soft and do wear quicker than some other tires. I really like their tire line.

The ASX is a new design. It has really good ratings for treadwear.

We'll see..............

I paid $129 each +tax including mount, balance and road hazard(215/35/18. Discount tire co. tires.com. treadwear 420 30,000 mile warranty. So far so great.

Pretty cheap for 225/45/17's. Michelin's All-season were coming in at $1000 for my car.

<$600 out-the-door with full (not pro-rata) road hazard warranty.

For the record, the best two other options were the Pirelli P-zero Nero and one of the Bridgestone Potenzas (forget which model) with uni-t technology.

The Bridgestones were sold out, and the Pirellis were an additional $200.


Wish me luck!

All of them!

This weekend my bar will be in Moab. Most commonly it is this one in Colorado Springs:

But I can be found in Breckenridge, Keystone and Copper Mountain. There's a bar at A-basin at 13K feet!

Have fun at Beaver Creek; it probably has the best customer service of any of 'em.

Blah blah blah........

BTW, much better sig.

Now we just have to get rid of Hillary!!!

Moab!! I've been wanting to go there mountain biking, but I usually end up in Vail or BC a couple times a year.

Have fun in Moab! What's there this time of year?

Four season tires in the snow...

That's not really good!
You guys should try out real winter tires! Makes a huge difference.

I live in Canada (lots of snow) and we use Toyo winter tires, they are awesome.

Tires like those will get you anywhere!

But I must say the Volvos in the snow are awesome!

I've been in a toss up between the Continental ContiExtreme and the Kuhmo Ecsta ASX in 235/40/17 for my new Pegs.I think after what I read,my money is on the Kuhmo.They are both close to the same price at discount tire direct.com. I'm just hoping they don't rub,but there is only one option in a 225/40/17,and I don't know anyone who has a set of Nitto 555 Extreme on their car.Anybody know anything about Nitto?

[ed850]

We just put Khumo's on my daughters 02 Nissan Altima and they have been great so far even in the snow.Got them from Tire Rack. The service was great and had them installed by one of their local recomended installers. The Conti's we took off the car were junk.They only lasted 26k.I was glad to find them as there are not many choices for that car. On another note i put Michelin X ice on my 98 S70an and have been pleased so far.

I've read good things about both the Conti's and the Kumho's.

Dunno about Nitto, but they cost almost double.

I think the most important thing is to rotate the tires every oil change.

People have mentioned winter tires in this thread. If I lived in Minnesota, they might be necessary. The roads here, however, are clear 99% of the time. Even after a snowstorm, they're usually completely clear in 24 hours. The all-season tires are a great compromise.
