Is this tire a good tire?

Question

I need new tires for my car. I made an appointment a while ago, requesting Kumho 215 60 16 tires. Well now they've called me last minute to say that they don't have those tires, but they have Kumho Kr21's instead. Does anyone know if this tire should fit my vehicle right, or is this even a good tire?

Answer 1

Kumho tires are cheap bottom wrung low grade tires, made of cheaper materials, they wear faster and experience failures (such as sidewall bubbles which are dangerous for their blowout potential) more often than better quality tire brands. If you can afford it I recommend either high grade Michelins or BF Goodrich tires. If not, you may be able to find good mid grade tires on special like brigdestone, yokohama, sumitomo, or continental.

Answer 2

nicely the regulations have replaced final 300 and sixty 5 days besides, however the the respond is honest opposition. Goodyear and NASCAR made a deal some decrease back to furnish maximum of tire consistent with race and Goodyear has been able to furnish. On a facet notice the communities no longer purchase the tires from Goodyear. they actually hire the tires from NASCAR for the time of the race weekend. After the race they must return all tires, and could be fined and loose factors in the event that they do no longer.

Answer 3

Korean Tires? I don't even know what your trying to put those 16" tires on? I use " tirerack.com " Price there tires and the local tire guys match there price remember some shipping is added to the tire rack price but if the local tire guy can come close buy locally or have tirerack ship to your tire store and pay to have them mounted and balanced or use the list of approved installers.
