I am looking at tyres and have made a shortlist based on price, availability & wear rates (as I can ascertain them).

Does anyone have experience of BOTH of the following and what are your opinions BETWEEN THE TWO tyres. I am not asking for sugestions of other tyres or similar, I just want to know which is best from the two tyres below.

Kumho ECSTA SPT KU31 87W

Falken FK-451 83ZR with Rim-protection

Thanks,

Steve.

I have the Falkens and they are so bad i have done 2000 miles on them and taken them off the car. The only plus point is the rim protection. Can't wait for a track day to shred them. I could be more constructive if you wish. DON'T BUY THEM.
