Kumho Ecsta 4X

Thinking about pulling the trigger on a set of these for the daily driver, mostly cuz they come in a 205/55-15, which ain't exactly common. Reviews seem favorable.

Whattya know?

I don't know but I have a coupon for $100 off a set so I am thinking of getting a set for the Benz.

Have them on the wife's Mazda5. They are a good tire in the rain and mildly entertaining in the dry. Much better traction than the RS-As they replaced when compared new for new. The RS-As really sucked and wouldn't be fit for a tire swing. People say the 4Xs are good in the snow.

I will say they have a harmonic in the Mazda5 around 50mph so make sure they'll let you return them if you have the same issue. Doesn't bug my wife but it bothers me as they've done it since mile 1.

I've had them on an 08 Mazda 6 for about 10k miles now. Only one snow day on them and were fine, good grip both wet and dry. Way better than the OEM Michelins. For a street tire for a DD I like them.

Exactly what i am thinking for my Fiesta. Anything is better than the RSA's

RSA= woRst tireS evAr

^BAA (bad at acronyms)

well boss has em on her corvette replaced a set of asx's with them. and they deff grip better than the asx's did in the dry. and are quiet. and well i just bought a set of 4 for the 6 so check with me in a week.

also just got a set for my RS last week in 205/55-16. it was between these, the potenza RE970, and General G-max AS-03. pricing, reviews, and test results made them too hard to pass up. i'll chime in again when they're on the car which will hopefully be soon.

I just mounted a set 3 weeks ago on my E36 and I am impressed, especially for the price. We have some heavy rain the last several days and they are great. The also work well in the dry for the highway commute and when taking the "fun" way home....

I had them on my summer wheels for my rabbit pickup and they perform very well for the money. It's no performance vehicle but they stick pretty good for normal driving; and good wet manners.

Hmm, I always thought your avatar picture was a RSX.

Upon closer inspection it appears that you are correct as to what kind of car you drive

lol ya id never drive an rsx. im against macpherson struts as a front suspension. the only exception is 3 series and foxbodies because well i dunno why. im very well aware of what i drive. lord knows ive had to fix and/or reengineer almost everything on her.
