Description: The Ecsta SPT (KU31) is Kumho's Ultra High Performance Summer tire developed for sports cars, coupes and sedans. The Ecsta SPT was designed to offer grip, handling, comfort, wear and good looks in order to provide enthusiastic drivers the ability to "Drive Hard 'Go Big' Look Good." Ecsta SPT tires are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

call me crazy for this winter purchase but they were such a good deal. i'm interested in how well they will do and i will update when i have about 5 or 10k on them

Pros: Excellent handling
Cons:

Replaced my runflats with 215/45x17s. Great grip and ride and the cost!?! Unbeatable. Tested on two weekends at Sebring, plus 6-7K miles and I have plenty of tire left for the upcoming season.

Someone mentioned they were loud, but I can't hear them. My exhaust and supercharger whine must be drowning them out, and yours will be too.

Pros: Low cost
Cons: Just OK grip

Have about 5 track days on a set of 205/45x17s. They're decent from the get go, but break down pretty bad as they heat up. At least they cut loose easy and once they have broke down they are slick but predictable. Haven't tried them in the wet and won't get a chance to since I've got to replace them after one of the fronts started to chunk out pretty good. Replacing them with the new Kuhmo Ecsta XS. Plan to run those in a week at Portland International. Will post a review of them then. Car and Driver raved about them so we'll see. Running them on a bone stock (except for EBC Red pads in front), 08' MCS
