Tyre reviews Kumho Ecsta Le Sport KU39. Page 1 133

I've been driving on these tires for five years, covering around 65,000 km. I'd say they lasted well. On the front axle, they managed to go 45,000 km.

I bought them after months of extensive research and, honestly, there weren't many reviews available due to the novelty of the tyres, but I read enough reviews to know they were worth taking on the plain-jokers. Well, what a revelation! I ditched the Yokohama C-tyres, which in my opinion were an excellent tyre on both wet and dry roads, but the KU-39s were on a whole different level.
