  • Kumho 716 Ecsta H4, an Uncanny Performer...

    Aug 29 '03
    Pros: Excellent Value, super quiet, very nice handling...
    Cons: If you have to buy American, you'll have to sit this one out...

    Summary: I was banging around under the wife's 2000 Jetta VR6 the other day and I caught a glimpse of the worn Eagle RS-As. My wife told me earlier in the week that she was planning a weekend trip to San Antonio with our five-year old for a visit with her friend ...

  • More than you might expect

    Mar 13 '07
    Pros: Inexpensive, good-grip, good all-weather handling and stopping
    Cons: Weird design on the sidewall

    Summary: Excellent quality tires, for a budget price. I bought four Kumho Ecsta HP4 tires for my 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP when the Continental ContiTouring tires that I had on it were going bald. I don’t know if it was just the new tires or whether the ...

  • Big Improvement

    Feb 26 '07
    Pros: Great Handling, Wet Traction, and extremely quiet.
    Cons: None

    Summary: The first thing that I noticed was a big improvement in cornering. The next thing was how much quieter they were than the stock tires. The Kuhmo 716 ECSTA HP4's replaced OEM TR rated Continental's that I drove for 1600 miles. Wow, what an improvement! My...

  • Kumho Ecsta 716 HP4 BSW

    Aug 01 '05
    Pros: Quiet,sticky, flexible without sway, firm and substantial feeling.No booming like the Michelins. Longer tread wear.
    Cons: Nails, staples, huge screws, or a bolt in my tires, but that hasn't happened yet.

    Summary: I have owned several high-performance automobiles, both American and Foreign, and I have driven them all at high speeds on the open Texas highways. I currently have two sons attending college which necessitated putting my wife into an 99 Acura 3.2TL. ...

  • The Not So Well Marketed Over Achiever

    Nov 01 '04
    Pros: Tracction, Price, Handling and Reliability.
    Cons: Some people might believe the cheap price delivers a cheap tire.

    Summary: If you are still reading this article you are probably wondering what is a Kumho. If you are familiar with this line of tires it was probably from a bad experience. In fact at one time Big-O tires were made in a Kumho factory but its been a while ...

  • good tires for the money

    Jul 04 '03
    Pros: good price, good grip, low noise
    Cons: side wall not the prettiest

    Summary: When looking to buy tires for my Subaru, I really wanted to get something nice and sporty like Pirel ...

  • I'm extremely pleased with this tire, and you will be, too.

    Feb 11 '03
    Pros: Fair price, excellent snow/wet traction for an all-season tire, quiet
    Cons: Ugliest sidewall of all time?

    Summary: I drive a twelve year old family sedan with lots of torque (which means with poor tires, I spin the front wheels easily on wet pavement). Since I bought the car used, and because I had put more than 30,000 miles on the obviously used tires, I felt it...

  • Funky Name, Great Tire!

    Dec 23 '02
    Pros: Price and performance
    Cons: Ice/Snow traction iffy

    Summary:
    Thanks for reading my second review on Kumho tires.

    What's a "Kumho" you might ask? No, it's not the sound Korean's make when they sneeze...It's a relatively obscure Korean company that makes very good tires for the money. I know what...

  • Kumho ECSTA 716 HP4 - Civilized and Inexpensive High Performance Tire ?

    Aug 06 '02
    Pros: Low price, great value, warranty, performance/handling/grip, low noise, good ride
    Cons: Not available in more sizes, sidewall could look better

    Summary: I replaced the tires that my Mitsubishi Galant ES came with (195/65HR15 Goodyear Eagle LS) with Kumho Ecsta 716 HP4 in size ...

  • Express Reviews
  • Great all-season for the money

    Feb 18 '04
    Pros: Low cost, great all around tire
    Cons: none to date

    Summary: I bought these tires for colder months. My car comes with summer tires stock, but since I live in North Carolina, I don't need a full snow tire. Admittedly, I bought these tires because of the cost. However, they have proven to be very competent

  • discount tires

    Summary: get them at tire rack vs discount tire and you save 30 bucks.thats includes installation.Got them at tire rack in 2 days.Lot better than my dunlops and handle

  • Poor man's Michelin

    Oct 24 '03
    Pros: Smooth ride, good traction, good directional stability, good quite cornering.
    Cons: None seen

    Summary: Went to America's Tire Co. on Brokaw Rd. in San Jose for new tires for my 2000 Toyota Camry. I had tried the Yokahama YK420's, but I didn't care for due to poor performance on rain grooved roads and general directional instability. I wanted a better

  • Extra!! Mini-Van Turns Into Sports Car!!

    Pros: Handling, Quiet, Price.
    Cons: None So Far

    Summary: Well, not exactly a sports car, but handles much better, especially in avoidance situations.. Nice Quiet Ride , Great Price, what's not to like? Replaced Pirelli 400 with these, Big Difference! I know some have said they don't like the Sidewalls, but t
