These are great tires. Saying "A great tire for money" makes them sound "cheap." These are great tires. Inexpensive, probably because they're made in Korea. I had the "C" word. I've got a friend who has a high-end car shop and these are the tires he recommends his customers. I don't work for the tire company. Labor costs are different overseas. These tires ride well, corner well, everything. I'm an agressive driver. I drive alot. I had Dunlops before, and they seem to have more sidewall blowouts than any tire I've had. No fixing those. BOOM. They're finished. Crazy bad tires. I trust these Kuhmos. Buy them again in a heart beat. 205/50R-16 KUMHO ECSTA 4X The guy at TIRERACK made the suggestion to upgrade to this tire. Great choice. As good a any Goodyear or Michelin I ever had, and costs less, too. This is compounded rubber, not rocket science. Just less labor costs. OK...so I didn't buy American. Big whoop. My bad. But I don't make alot of money. I had a local guy mount & balance the tires for $10 ea., which incl. removing the other tires and disposal charge. Another great deal. Again, a super tire to ride on!
