Normal? You've got to be kidding! No tread seperation is normal. It's a defect if you ask me! If you had the same problem with a set of street tires you'd want a replacement right! Well same here! K

There was a note recently on team.net about someone seeing a circumferential crack around their Kum-ho. I don't know all the details on this, but this past weekend at a Milwaukee SCCA event, a Kum-ho

I run my tire pressures almost 10-12 lbs hign than what I do in my R-1's, so I can't believe it's from underflation. I've never seen the sidewall crack thingie, but I'd think it might be due to turn

I think you misunderstood. The sidewall cracks are due to underinflation, not the tread delamination. If you mean running the outside on the inside, I don't do that. No, the sidewall crack thingie is

Early in this season, when I first got Kumho's, the Kumho technical center suggested that to find good minimum inflation pressures for my driving style and car was to start a bit high, in this case 4

Good idea to start high and work down. I have heard that a lot, but it does not work at all on my 911 for road racing. With 2-3 degrees negative camber I never get close to the edge of the tire. Pyro

I'm not sure I can condone this getting high and working down on "kumho crack". I thought this was the autocross list? I smoked kumho crack once... but I didn't inhale. -- Loren Williams | Homepage -

The car in question was lowered and was running the tires underinflated. Having done the most experimenting possible with Kumho's, I have come to the conclusion that the crack comes from underinflati

Buy American? :) PLW You mean buy American as in BFG? A subsidiary of Michelin... a FRENCH company? Or did you mean Hoosier? I know BFG's are made in America, but does that make it an American tire?

Now that you mention it, they do behave alot like Yokes. After some tinkering around, I've ended up using the same tire pressures I did with the Yokes, too. The Kumhos stick better than the Yokes did
