Anyone try these tires?

These look really nice and you can't beat the price. They are made in South Korea just like the Kumhos. I spoke to a tire dealer in Pasadena and he said he's been selling this brand for about 2 years and they love them. I might risk it and try these....I'll keep you guys posted if I do. For 265-75-16 they want $150 each including mounting and balance, not bad! FYI, the Kumho MT KL71 (my first choice) are on back order, every single place I've called are out of stock.

i agree with 89macrunner...cause it would be like the no names down here in Belize...they dont last long and they puncture very easily.

BFG, michelin, Firestone, bridgestone, Goodyear, Cooper, Dunlop, Yokohama, Kumho, Toyo, Nitto, General, Falken, Kelly, Mickey Thompson, Maxxis, Uniroyal, Pirelli, Hoosier, and Hankook were all no name brands a one point.. look for customer feedback and reviews.. cant dog them if youve never had them can you?

Also, many tires sold under the generic brands come from the same plant as the more popular brands... even off the same line just with a different logo put on.

Looks like a good tire. You will have to post up a review after a few thousand miles.
