A short field report of the Ku31.

Currently on kumho ecsta spt ku31 with rim size 205/55r16

 

Got a chance to test out the tyres yesterday evening on my way home during the heavy down pour.

Was driving along Mandai rd and I turn off to the rd leading to mandai zoo (no car heading that direction during that period of time) and did a acceleration test (90km/hr) in the rain and it just cut thru paddle of water like tofu with good hydroplane resistance. Did a emergency brake stunt and was surprise to it ability to stop in a short distance. Impressive grip in the extreme heavy rain conditions.

Where did you get the Kumho and how much for that size? You driving a FD? Am looking for some shoes as well now.

No. It can be much cheaper than the above price if you know where to get it.

I will said go for KU31. The price different between KU31 and F1 As cannot be ignored. You can get the KU31 at lower end of $100++ even for 17". Even if the F1 As is better in performance, I believe it will only be slightly better. Choice is still yours if you are cash rich.

i know.. 140 is the higher banding...

 

but I have yet to squeeze. so what is the better price to quote?

[Sony]

u try first, if not good then i get f1as

 

 

 

can consider.. coz it's quite cheap.. and I think with my current budget, i can change one every 8 months.. let me twiggle my thumb again..

I was quoted S$110/pc for made in vietnam one. At the end, I didnt go for it cause unsure about the quality.

not so sure abt 215 but 225 is about 120-140... if you squeeze harder maybe can be even cheaper
