John:
I ran the Kumho MX in 205 & 225 x 16 for a bit over a year, doing
Time Trials and street driving. They are fairly forgiving, from the
standpoint of pressure, and even more forgiving on driving style.
If you're really rough (lots of sliding), they do suffer, but much
less than the sticky tires, of course. We'd get about 12 hours
of big track events on them, and they ran smooth and wore
well on the street also. They were cheap - $80 - 100 per, if I
recall. Other info - Treadwear 220, we flipped them on the rim
to extend life (low camber car), and the car was a 2900 lb
911. They would be my first choice for a zero-point tire.
Paul.
