Kumho KU36's

[kevt88]

Anyone running Ku36's on their S? If so, how does it go on street & track?

value for money but not for performance.

What about re001's? for 210 each.. abit more expensive then i last remember paying lol..

[vyets]

re001 aint got nothing on the ku36 :P

They awsome for street, track they are lacking abit but are good enough unless you want to get serious.
Don't last very long but. But they are real cheap

Well my rears are gone, there are literally no lines in the tyres bwuahah.. But i was tossing up RE050's or RE001's or my old S1 EVO's.. but S1's are like 475 each.. and dont last very long at all..

RE001's are awesome, and last for quite a while (depending on what you put them through ofcourse lol)

[kevt88]

hmm well for 600 for a set of 16inch's. i think its worth trying for my coming track day.

[F20C]

i honestly think their awsome.. i had them awhile ago but moved back to s1's but if anyone read the other thread before i need work! now i cant buy either haha

re001 are good, but they not in the same class as the ku36 the re01R or re11 however is

another alternative you could try R1R..very good performance in dry and wet.

I run the KU36 on the rear and RE01R on the front.

I have ZERO complaints. Car grips like all buggery on the street. I no longer get wheelspin, or slide around corners.... but, I am comparing a 330hp S on 225/40 to a 330hp S on 255/35 rubber.
