I am mixed on the Kumhos...mine have 28,000 miles on them and plenty of tread left. The only problem is the sidewalls are cracking around the letters...almost like dry rot. I have shown them to several tire dealers (non-Kumho) and they say its not a big deal, but IMO any sidewall problems is a big deal. Kumhos response to it was nothing...no reply to emails or anything. So while they have been good tires as far as ride and tread wear the lack of support from Kumho has REALLY turned me off to them.
As far as the Cooper Zeon xst's go they have excellent reveiws every where and their normal price is much more than the Kumhos. I have ran Coopers before (not in this size) and have nothing but good things to say about them. They are made in the USA...infact we have a large plant here where I live (not sure if these are made there or not though). The only thing I like better about the Kumhos is the tread looks better....but thats not that important.

Cool...I am going to edit the link and take his info out now that you got it. If anybody else needs it let me know...I just hate to leave his info out in the open without his permission.
