Thread: Anyone used Kumho ECSTA KU39s?

    Anyone used Kumho ECSTA KU39s?

    Friend of mine got a pair of Kumho ECSTA KU39 (€380 fitted) on his A4 S-Line and swears by them.

    Anyone here running them? Good reports?

    Ran them on my E36 without issue. For the money at the time, I remember being very happy with them.

    I haven't seen anything else with reviews that good around that pricepoint. Thanks for the feedback.

    Put a new set on the compact a few months before selling it. Seemed perfectly fine, quiet and comfortable.

    I have a set on the front of mine, they were on the car when I got it. I've put 30k km on them in the last year and still have 4mm of thread. Grip is great. Only bad thing I can say is that they have recently gotten very noisy at higher speeds.

    I have them on the back of the 335i due to being stuck with a blowout in Mayo. They're not too bad really, struggle a little in the wet to tame 306bhp but overall a decent tyre.

    I have them on an E46 320Ci, and think they are great. Don't notice much difference to my previous bridge stones. Also have Kumho winter tyres which go on each November.
