Wheels & Tires - 315/30/18 Kumho Ecsta XS?

Anybody use this tire? Thoughts?


More importantly, anybody got this tire in stock? :lol:

The tires are great. With tons of grip and hookup. Unfortunately they are backordered. I would guess 3 months.

yeah i just found that out.....sucks, because i've heard good things from a local import crowd about them....figured i'd give them a try. oh well, i guess...

yup on BO..... I placed an order back in Mar and still waiting. Good thing I have a set of burners ready for my wheels.

These tires are the shit man... they grip very well.

Figures...looks like i'm stuck Falken's or 305 Nitto 555R's

I know right.... It sucks. BTW, I just read through a few pages of your build thread (too many to weed through) and wanted to say, you did a damn nice job dude.

Thanks man

I'm running these tires and I think they have a fantastic grip!

Yeah these things are the real deal grip wise. I am hoping to get my hands on some.

You should check out the 315/35/18 Toyo Proxes TQ. It's a drag radial, but damn does it have some street manners. I've been daily driving them coming up on 2 years now, with many road trips a year. I'm about to order a new set. They are just now beginning to spin when I nail 2nd gear. They've been a great tire, with tons of grip.

How many miles did you get out of them?

always liked kumho tires. got a set of XS 295/40/17s sitting im my garage waiting to go to the track with em when it gets warmer out

I just got my 315 35 R17 Toyo Proxes TQ's in the mail and they look like they run pretty wide, I'm extremely excited to try them out and see how they hook! I have heard many good things about them and for how cheap they are it is certainly worth at least trying them out! (only pic I have, I will post a pic of them mounted when I get a chance).

Tons of dry grip for a streetable tread. Unfortunately backorder. I will report back when I get an availability date.
