They're nice, but no nicer than any other new tire I've had. Maybe the difference will be realized as the miles pile up, because that's where the Kumhos lost their shine. Every set of Kumhos I've had tend to start becoming annoying over the last 10K-15K of their life cycle. Their wet traction gets bad, they get noisier, and one or more will develop a shake and no amount of balancing will get rid of it. Maybe that's where the Michelins will be better. Only time will tell I guess.
How much psi per tire are you running?
Thanks, Jim
