Thoughts???

I'm running the Bridgestone ER300 on my XT and they have totally transformed the handling. ( but geolanders are probably the worst tyre ever made )
Excellent wet and dry grip and are looking like they should last really well.
These are the same tire the police run on their commo's and they push those things pretty hard!

Thats not a bad price for the Kumho`s - might be a bit slippery in winter tho

I used to have rs2's and now i have k107's as my road tyres.
I find that the the k107's are MUCH better than the rs2's.
Quieter, better grip, more comfortable and I'm pushin about 50kw and 120nm more
atw than I was with the rs2's.

I run the Bridgestone Adrenalin's I think they are pretty good wet/dry tyre, I'm due for a new set soon I would buy them again.

you must've been the guy in the black wagon who came in today into my work.

i've ordered a few sets of the KU31 kumhos now and have had really good response back. not sure of prices on 215/45/17s though.

Pete.
