I think that if you want to have a fair test you should mount the tyres on two identical cars. Braking performance is affected not only by tyres but by the braking capabilities and weight of the car itself.
Hey Andrei, you're right, and we're working towards doing that in the future. Unfortunately those types of tests are expensive, so we're building reputation and income via other media first, so then we can go nuts with the big tests 💪
I recently purchased a set of Kumho tires for my 2014 Honda Civic SI sedan . After a recent trip from Phoenix, Az to the LA/Malibu Ca area my initial impressions are positive. My trip included a ride on a section of Mulholland drive from PCH 1 . For the price they seem like an excellent value . Of course how the longer term mileage remains to be seen..
Might get the PS71s on my V8 RS5. Strictly for summer. I got the car with P-Zeros, but I’m not taking this on the track. Just need something reliable that I can cruise with.
PS71 came default with my Hyundai Elite i30 Sedan 2023, really good tyres, but 2 blew out due to a large pot hole, a major issue on Victorian roads at the moment. I also note the PS71 are very noisy, i plan to replace my blown out tyres with the PA51 soon hopefully less noise as per Kumho's specs
I have good price for PS71 here in Europe but Volvo XC60 is heavy weight with 2.4 diesel enginr and awd and I'm wondering how this tires will be working the job on my vehicle who demolish previous Pirelli PZero...
Thanks for the review. Helped a lot. However the G70, while much nicer inside is in fact faster than the Stinger. Same platform but the 3.3T G70, out accelerates, out brakes & out handles the Stinger. Not overly sure why it was called the softer car when it's the far more aggressive (and comfortable) vehicle. Does Australia not get the 3.3T? I know some areas don't (UK). Regardless, thanks again!
Thanks Hemi! We've had the new Cooper AT3 XLT on our long term test (vid link below) and we'll have the KO2 before too long - watch this space! ~ Jared czcams.com/video/0t7A5dy4PwM/video.html
Can I survive with the PS71, a summer performance tire on my stinger throughout the winter in Charlotte, NC. We don’t get much snow but we do get some( 1-3 storms) ice storms occasionally, and colder temps well below 40 and sometimes 30.
Had a set put on my Toyota Celica GTS On the 24th Sept Bought them from DICOUNT TIRE! They Sold Me A Set of Out Dated Kumho Ecsta PA51 ! 3 of The TIRES are Dated 1220 One Tire Was New 2218 Disputing this STORE! Trust No One!
can you let me know how is the side wall on the ps71? i like a hard side wall, and these are looking goo for my mk4 golf gti 225/45R17, i have on my other car 4 potenza s001 same size and i like them but this are at a realy nice price, hows the side wall comparing to the potenza s001?
@@Zeggawong i bought 4 falken Fk510 with about 6 month of production time for about 125 euros dont know if it was a crazy promo or some kind of website bug, next day they wore at a normal price, + i paid localy other 50 euros for fitting balancing and wheel allignment, crazy deal right, and for a daily they are perty nice tires
The comparison to "budget" cars was not a good idea for a U.S. audience. What a lot of us heard was "Looks good, midrange performance but expect problems." 😆 To fair it isn't just those manufacturers like that now but... I just got the TA 71 XLs for my Camaro but they were free. They are brand new, the sidewall design looks great and they have all the signs of a great tire. Gonna do a soak treatment this week to get them ready. Hopefully they will last longer than these Continentals that came on it.
Difference between Ps71 and Ps31??? I’m running Ps31 rn high performance summer tires and they suck with wet traction off the line and in corners. Is there a difference in the wet traction with the ps71?
Also what about the Ps91 for wet traction?? I’m looking for something better for my new GLI and I previously had the Ps31 on my 2016 Jetta and I love the low noise so definitely wanna stick with the Ecsta ps summer performance cause the grip but I want more wet traction grip. So what’s the next up from the ps31s
The noisiest tyres I've ever had on a car yet I wouldn't recommend these tyres to anybody I've just new all terrain tyres on my as well and they are quiteter than the pa 51 on the lancer
I'd be keen to hear how you go with the next set. I've been pondering how noisy some passenger tyres are on passenger vehicles, whereas, like you say, some ATs are incredibly quiet on utes.
i have been running the PS71s on my Turbo getz and its amazing in grip especially in wet weather!

So they are definitely better than the ps31?
@@philip3235 I have never used ps31. I am enjoying the ps71. It’s quiet and grips better than the stock Michelins my 86 came with.

I own a Hyundai I 30 , replaced the original tyres with Kumho tyres, worst tyres for aquaplaning I have been on, wont buy them again.
Hi Alan, Adam here from Kumho, tyres are designed for highway and general use, please don’t aquaplane with them your insurance will be void

I had PA51's on my Saab 9-3 and I actually found them to be pretty quiet & refined for a UHP tire, especially with the variable pitch tread design...
