style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial>Yea, I
found stories like this for ALL the brands available at the time,<BR>Nankang
was the worse but Nexen wasnt much better... most tires are made in<BR>China
now and are crap compared to what we had 10 or 15 years ago.
That<BR>being said, the Kumho's are the best tires Ive ever had on the Square,
the<BR>stiffest sidewalls made for the best handling tires, the best ones in
the<BR>rain, the held their balance better than any ive had (cooper,
Kelley,<BR>Michelin) and remained round... until :-)<BR><BR>Ive got 37K on
them, they were a 44Kmi tire and I could have made that had<BR>the belts not
given way. So I guess while they were a good tire performace<BR>wise,
the cheap rubber and CHinese manufacture aspect have caught up
with<BR>me.<BR><BR>Or I need to stop rock crawling with Cheap
tires!<BR><BR>Keith</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
