I find it more sad that you will never know what reality is until it hits you in the face. Pay for something yourself and you’ll know what I mean.

Sorry to hear that our dad has the intelligence to let us live our own lives and learn to support ourselves instead of letting us live a fake reality untill he runs out of money.

I think it was more of the hint towards nothing being purchased on ones own. Not just the tires.

> kuhmo 712;s cheap and wear good great in the rain handle decently not loud and with a lil heat hook decently… i ran/burned/raced em all the time 1.89 60 foot was the best i got outta em. good tire for the price

they are good for the price, i guess…as far as street use. when i raced auto-x though they were assturds (as far as sreet tires go, compared to the F1s) my instructor told me that they were really holdin the car back and that the stock F1s wouldve been alot better. so i guess it all depends on what you are usin them for. i personally, would buy them again just cause of the price and they seem to hold up and look cool. its not like im racing autox for aliving, so whatever. but i’d still look around and consider other options, because by no means are the tires amazing when it comes to hook.

I use Kuhmo ecsta SPT’s and I like them, first Kuhmo tires I’ve used though. I’m only on my second set with my 17’s and my 3rd set period, so what do I know? :dunno:

I ran Falken’s before that, and they were not so good, same price as what I paid for these and it wasn’t even close as far as performance and ride quality go.

Only thing about the Kuhmo’s is the road noise, I hate that whining.

i think its because they heat up and become somewhat greasy… alot of street tires get hot and start to get slippery…especialy on autox course. and i’ve heard/seen many reports saying kumhos are ok for street but dont get them hot
