Kumo tires

Who needs brakes

I agree, FWD sucks (still can be fun: SPEED touring challenge), so does large repair bills (M3). It does indeed look good on paper though

As a Formula SAE test driver, there is nothing more exhilirating than a hi-revving, open-wheel, RWD machine on slick tires

I have Kumho Ecsta's on my work Ford Focus. Good wear, quiet, good grip even in snow going up I80 to NY last February. A great deal @ Tires.com, and web price honored in Indy. My friend @ work put them on his Mazda Protege, and feels the same way. A good value for the average driver.

Ordinary roman numerals: "M" = 1,000

Have no idea where "k" came from.

I think the K came from the metric system K= 1000?

To a point. You also pay for the name...

I don't really believe this because American Currency is worth more than the Korean Currency.. thats why Korean products are cheaper in price.
