Kumho 712's are the worst for anything....I did try somw kunho ASX all seasons and they gave me 2 years of perfect handling for cheap. They also create good smoke shows...lol
Im thinking on getting a set of Nitto Neo Gen's 205/40/17's for the SRT4 wheels I just picked up....anyone hear anything about those tires?

Kumho tires are crap i had them on my old car and their garbage in the rain, summer, snow! i picked up a set of tires for 135 cnd and they seem to work great for cheap tires so called!Image

I am putting my stockies back on for the winter, it would be stupid to have my rims on during that time.

i used Ultra HPR radial low profile tires, they work sweet in the rain and dry conditions. not bad for "cheaper" tires. Better than kumho

Has anyone got a tire size wider than a 205/40/17 under there wells?

205's are kind of skinny in my book, has someone tried maybe 215 or 225's with maybe a 30-35series? if they even make it of course...
