Kuhmo 711's
 
Just wanted to get some feedback from anyone that has had or have these tires. Yes I know Kuhmo's are not the best tire out there but for my budget right now the price is right. I will be running a 215/45/17 in these. Just wanted some opinions of the tire. Thanks

bad ass tire, they are kinda soft so if you race or have bad camber, your going to get eaten up in about 4 months, but overall, they are really nice, high quality tires

i heard the 711s aren't that great, get the 712s.

I have the 712's they're an ok tire. As grippy as my Parada spec 1's were but WAY quieter. However, they suck ass completely when it comes to balancing, I've had my 225/40/18 balanced mutiple times and I'm still not very happy with them my Paradas were a much truer tire. My buds SO-3's keep ass though he has nearly no wieghts at all. I'd pass on kumho's again for this reason. Spend the money and get some Bridgestones or Yoko's but not the paradas.

I have had the 712's previously also. For just regular daily driving that I do they were a good tire. I dont race my car or push it to any limits, its basically just a daily driver to work. The 711's came with a wheel/tire package I ordered and didnt want to pay the extra $100 for a tire upgrade. I like the tread better on the 711's compared to the 712's anyway but I just wanted some opinions on these tires.

i like em a lot.
i had paradas before (did not like them at all noisy as ****).
my gf has the 712's, and for a daily driver i like the 711's better, they grip very well, they are much quieter, and were cheaper as well. I would recommend them to almost anyone.

I think only one of my tires needed a weight on it. The rest had good balance already.
