Replacement tires sought...
The Kumho's lasted - 56k now, that's 35k vs OEM 21k miles. Really held well. The warehouses for Kumho have all bitten the big one - local huge Kumho sign on a tire dealer - and they can no longer get them. Several places pushing the Nitto NT850 - pretty new - all weather - 500 treadware - AA traction/ A temp $573 inc road hazard from the old local place I've used. I have no idea where they are made. Looks like they are meant for big buck touring cars - but they insist they are for 'handling'. Cooper, still made in USA, Zeon Sports are a tad more - more performance rated - 400 Treadware & AA/A traction/temperature - $625 installed w r/h. Any use reports/suggestions would be appreciated!
Anyone still out there??
Thanks!

yea the nittos are good stuff. my cousin has some on his cts-v does great. i hope this isnt too late but i would for sure recomend the nittos. i think their street tires are manufactured in japan by toyo but i know their dirt tires are made here in usa so maby they make the street ones here now too. i dunno but it will say on the side of the tire when you are at the shop or you could call someone there to have them check for you. hope this helps
