kumho or spec 2 tires..>>?

debating on which tires to get

spec 2
- buying it for the name
- thread style
- pretty much the same thread life as the kumho's.


kumho
- about 300 cheapter then spec 2 from the quotes i got.



300$ can go well towards the h/r springs w/ koni's or tein's.


any opinions?

kumhos, the spec 2's are nice, but not worth 300 more imo. kumho's do a fine job. or if you really want some nice tires, get michielin(sp?) pilote sports 2. those are some sick tires but are so expensive.

well what im saying is get the kumhos becasue they are good tires and priced well. if you really want to spend more money on a tire, then go all out and get one that is gunna be worth the extra cash, like the pilote sport 2. just my opinion, but the parad spec 2 are not worth the extra cash.

the toyos wouldnt bad.

Are you talking about khumo 712's? Are you really into the performance of your tire, or you just looking for a decent tire to city drive? Cause the 712's are a decent city driving tire. But if you're looking for something sticky, with stiff sidewalls, then I wouldn't recommend them.

Why don't you invest in the Azenis? They're a really good performing tire for the price.
