Default Best Price for Kumho KU 31 215/40/17

Hi guys,

I'm on the lookout to buy 2 new tyres for my car.

Has anyone seen Kumho KU31's at a reasonable price in Perth or online?

If anyone has any prices they can advise me of, I'd appreciate it.

Tyre size: 215/40/R17.

Cheers

Email Tempe tyres, I bought some of these back when I had 19's and they crapped all over anything I could get locally.

How did you guys find the performance of these tires & what sort of mileage can I expect to get out of the them for mostly normal driving?

I had them on the xr and they were pretty good, but the rear wheel torque just chopped them quick. My mate has them on his BF n/a ute and theyve been fantastic, great grip and durability. They seem to be a very evenly wearing tyre across the tread too.

I imagine they'd be very good on an AWD car, but definitely check tempe 4 a price, i paid around 200 delivered for 245/35 19's, around $100 per tyre cheaper than anywhere in WA, so 17's should be cheaper than that.
