WHAT???

[DJKOR]

LAST LONGER OR BETTER PERFORMANCE. YOU CAN ONLY PICK ONE OR THE OTHER OR YOU HAVE TO COMPROMISE AND SIT IN THE MIDDLE.

OH god ! better performance is better....! so which one

[Andrew357]

OR DRIVE LIKE ANTHONY ON HIS RE001's AND GET 45000KM FROM THEM

[u54mot]

HANKOOK S1 EVO Replica. BUY TWO SETS FOR THE SAME PRICE. LAST LONG TIME. SMALL PRICE.

Pretty sure the Falken 452 would perform better.

However, for some reason, I never liked Falkens, and this was reinforced when my Falken slicks punctured on me at the track.

The KU19's are quite an old tyre now for Kumho. Sucks the don’t make the newer and widely regarded as a better tyre the KU38 in your size (they only make them in 18 &19")

I'm currently running FK452's and have a fantastic run out of them, have tonnes of mechanical grip and resistant to aqua planning. i have got great life from them and they have been on a handful of cruises where there put through their paces plenty. All in all i would highly recommend them. i understand the support from Falken to their dealers is nothing short of crap! The tyre shop we use at work therefore i use too as they look after me were both Falken and Kumho and there over Falken. Love the product but hate the support so they favour the Kumhos now so i will probably go with KU38's i think for my next treads.

Arghhh really dont say that lol? which ones were you running? the KU38's are meant to be quieter then either KU31 and 19. Might stick with the FK452's yet then!

[e240]

I'm using KU31...no complaints... .It actually performs quite well even in the wet

road noise? I actually enjoy it - its nice to listen to what your tyres are doing..

[trentmeyer23]

We run the KU23's on our Aurion and they are quiet enough for us. I run the KU31's on the Gen 3 and don't notice or care about noise in that.

[Ronnyboy]

They are both good tyres. Take your pick

[METAL13]

I have run Kumho and im now running FALKEN

GO the FALKEN, less road noise awesome grip and work well in wet :) ( had mine 3-4 weeks and put them thru some harsh paces :D / they done well )
