Kuhmo ku39
Does anyone have any reviews/feedback on the above tires.
My rear rfts are shot and need replacing ASAP, was planning on going down the falken route but seems the tsunami has stopped me being able to that. In desperate need and camskill have these in stock. |

They are one of the best budget tyres
Not as good as the conti's yet some of the m3 guys say there isn't much difference between them and the ps2's apart from the price. I'm surprised you can get any, no/limited stock for staggered 19's. |

These kuhmo are not available for the fronts though according to camskill website.
Just need rubber sorted all round ASAP whether it's upsizing by one or oem sizing. But don't want rfts |

I've been checking these out for when my run flats go. Had Khumos on my first car and they was good. I've found plenty of places with the KU39s in 255/30/19, but nowhere with the 225/35/19s apart from ebay.
May just be a supply issue (I hope), if not I know the older KU31 seem to be available in 225/35/19 (prob not an ideal solution though) |

The KU31 are a great tyre too. Possibly even better than the KU39, I think that's more of a comfort/touring tyre, where the KU31 is a UHP. I've used them myself in the past, got absolutely no complaints at all.

I had Kumho Ku31's on my E93 - same issue as you in that I went to buy Falken's and they weren't in stock. With not one but two nails in one of my Bridgestone runflats I couldn't really wait and went for the Kumho's. I only ran them a few thousand miles before the car went in favour of the Dooper, but no complaints at all. Pics below:
Oops I think I need a new tyre in a hurry! These Kumho's will do:

I rate them right up there with PS2's, KU31 I am talking about, and they piss all over the FK452 in every respect, the only thing the Falken does better is ultimate grip in the wet.
