I think that I am going to go with a set of Kuhmos, what do you all think on these? They are very reasonably priced so that has alot to do with my choice.:thumbsup:

My son's friend loved his Kuhmos, thought they had excellent grip and handling!

They'll give you a nicer ride compared to the GY runflats

I agree with D2.

Every since I went to the Goodyear Eagle All Seasons, I haven't looked back. They stick like glue in every type of weather condition, especially pouring rain. On top of that, a local discount store will sell me both the fronts and rears for around $700. That's $300 cheaper than the Goodyear store. I'm sold on that tire.

Around $650 for the set. The rears do not come in stock sizes. They come in a little wider and not as tall size.

they are good, but not as good as their Goodyear or their Michelin equivalent. The Kumho Runflats though are not a bad value.

Although I've never road on a set, I have only heard good things from owners of VRed's. I would definitely choose them over any runflat made.
