Kumho  Solus KH25

These tires came on my 2013 Hyundai Sonata Limited. I've put 25,000 miles on them so far. Wear seems okay. Road noise seems average (not the best). Hydroplaning resistance seems average at best. TERRIBLE in snow/ice. Performance on dry pavement seems as good as any. They "feel" a bit "hard" on dry pavement, but perform pretty well. I'll hope that I survive the winters, then buy different tires when these wear out.

Just moved out of an 06 WRX with the Continental ExtremeContact DW's (great tire BTW) recently put on it. I know I am a little biased from moving from the AWD to FWD but the overall quality of these "all-season" tires is awful. I will be buying a new set ALREADY! The dry condition performance is decent though. So if you run no risk of being caught in snow or heavy rain they will suffice.

This tire came on my sonata...I still have less than 10,000 fairly light miles on the tires and they're already close to the danger zone. They're worthless in almost any amount of snow/ice. Overall I'm very disappointed in this tire and would STRONGLY urge readers to go another route.

Tires "howled" from day 1. I drive highway 5 days a wk 75 miles round trip and do not trust these in any type of water. Being in S. Florida that's bad news. If it rains, I won't even get on the highway. Tread went down almost immediately and leveled off to "bad" Extensive research has me going to Continental PureContact w/EcoPlus Tech or Bridgestone Turnaza Serenity Plus (yes I know the plus is for snow and unnecessary in Fl, but the tread report is much better on this one for some reason. Bottom line: The Kumho's reviewed are NOT made for: rain/wet/hydroplane...anything to do with "moisture." If there's condensation, don't take'em out!!

No matter what the ratings say, these are summer only tires. Heavy rain or any kind of cold precipitation, and welcome to the skating rink. For a front wheel drive car to have a constant rear end pull to the left in weather is unacceptable. I will be getting new tires soon.

Dry weather performance is just O.K. My automatic Ford Fiesta will easily spin the tires. Wet performance is poor and they seem easy to hydroplane. Ice and snow performance is horrible. Tread wear also is not too good. On the plus side, they are quiet and seem to ride alright. I would definitely spend the extra money for a good set of Michelin MXV4's which I had on my last car. They had very good wet and dry performance and quite good on snow and ice in Michigan winters.

I live in Wyoming and travel the roads in winter time. Felt like I was driving on completely bald tires. I'm very cautious in the winter but these tires made driving in snow and ice nearly impossible. Felt like being on an inner tube behind a boat when rain was heavy, which is out of control, for those you who have never been on a tube behind a boat. You can simply look at the tread on the tires and debate if its a summer only tire intended for perfect street conditions.
At 34,000 miles on these tires and in dire need of replacing, I am very disappointed to say the least! I do traffic control for road construction and understand wear and tear on tires as I spent 90% of my time in a vehicle.

Tires ride rough and loud on highway/city. Tire don't handle well going uphill in snowy conditions.

These came stock on my 2011 Sonata. After 11 months and 40,000 miles and am trading up to the Michelin Primacy. Last winter, even new, they never felt like they had a real good grip in light snow. And they are LOUD! Unfortunately, they did not drown out the complaints of my girlfriend on a recent trip to the Outerbanks NC. She reminded me everytime we went some where that she could not believe the constant roar coming from these tires. Since I drive it every day, I guess I didn't notice...now it"s all I hear.

OEM tire on my 2011 Sonata GLS. Tires have 22,500 on them and all four have 6/32" tread depth remaining according to the Hyundai dealer. Should be good for another 10,000 miles at the most. Tires are very noisy. Traction control kicks in when accelerating on wet pavement. Ride quality is only average, some harsh bumps really get transmitted to the suspension. Steering response is decent, and the tires hold corners well. Snow traction is only fair. Snow over 5" can get very dicey as the tires scramble for traction. Starting in 2nd gear is a must with these tires in deeper snow. Light snow (1"-3") is a little better but not 100% confidence inspiring. No all-season tire will be effective on ice, and these are no exception. If the roads are icy, stay home. When these tires need replacing I will be choosing something else. Nothing against Kumho, but will most likely stay away from the Solus line of tires. Would be willing to try the Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum in the OEM size.

Stock on new car.They're coming off.Bought the Limited trim for the touring-style comfort,as opposed to the sport-tuned SE trim. Kumhos are bumpy,noisy and wobbly. Hyundai should know better.

Hate these tires! Have a little over 20K miles on my '13 kia optima EX and they have already worn out. Given the road conditions aren't ideal here, but anything eats them up. The ride is very bad and they throw aweful road noise. Will not be buying again! I'll be sticking to the continentals I had on my last car.

These tires came stock on my 2011 Hyundai Accent sport hatch, and even though I babied it and rarely ever exceeded 65mph on highway, 40 everywhere else,they were worn down to wearbars with less than 20k miles. Contacted Kumho, they didnt even return messages or try to help. They are also completely useless in snow or ice or even heavy rain. Only good thing is they are quiet and decent in dry warm weather. Unless dirt cheap, find something better.

Poor tire quality with obvious road noise even when new. Wet/ Snow handling below average. Tires have a rapid wear characteristic.
At 25,000 the tires had good tread depth left implying a long lived tire despite its other weaknesses. In only 3000 miles - all 4 will not pass inspection. 4 bald tires at 27,900 miles.

OEM Tire on my Sonata. Decent tire on dry pavement but that goes away at the earliest sign of moisture. Terrible ice and snow traction. Tread wear was even but faster than I expected from a car tire. I kept the tires regularly balanced, rotated, and aligned. Rarely carried more than 3 passengers or any heavy weight in the trunk. All four tires are worn down to the tread wear bars across the width of the tires. The tires also started making a howling noise about a year ago but had no physical deformities or abnormal characteristics. I will definitely be replacing these tires soon. I wished they would get at least 36,000.
