tripsteady Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hey Guys Looking for those whove had experiences dealing with both these tyres in wet conditions Are the KU39's worth the extra dough? Im currently running 265-35-18 on the rear. The 255's are much cheaper , would my performance be hurt that much by fitting a 255 in place of the 265's? Car is a daily driver which sees no track use.

Hadouken Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 a) I thought you already chose a set of tyres over a month ago b) I told you to consider yokohamas while your at it c) your packing bricks because your car/you drive like shit in the wet so that should mean that you should buy a really good pair of tyres d) just go get the ku31's. Lots of people have reviewed them and say they are good Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/412698-kumho-ku39s-or-ku31s/#findComment-6602483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty nm35 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 KU36's are fine in the wet from my experience but I would definitely not buy them again due to the incredible road noise they started making at around half tread. Go the KU31's for the road, but even they are noisy from all accounts.

sydking Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 i always used Adrenalin Potenza RE001 on my NA 33, about $220 per corner Never had issues with them, Mind you i wasent putting much power down but they served me great- Great life out of them too. You can slip out with anything in the wet - Drive to the conditions and use common sense.
