Kumho V710

How long ago was that Harry?

What was the build date of the tyres?

Kumho recalled the 710's in 04 in the US due to blow out fears

I can find any other cases of issues with them though

it was the start of 2010. Tyres were 3 years old when I bought them on special on FSport. I suspect all the tyres FSport has on special are getting a bit old.

The MX5 2B 2F racers up here have blowouts with the Kumho V70As. A bloke with an e30 who bought a set of S700 on special last year had the same blowout issues as I did - inner edge of the fronts delaminate and blowout. There was a class in NSW that used Kumho V70A's as a control tyre a few years ago had blowouts as well. It doesn't happen to everyone, but it happen to more Kumhos than any other tyre I've ever seen.
