Ive never had a problem with them, thought they were quite reasonable for the money. Not the best in damp, but good in the dry.

Our place is sponsered by kumho tyres, i would say they aint bad at all, but they aint the best though either of course. If your after cheap half decent tyres, they are ok for that. The way i see it normally is, you get what you pay for!
