tire preference?

I need to get new tires for my 99 gt and have narrowed down to 2 brands and I would like everyone's opinion.

Kumho or Hankook ?

goodyear

actually to tell you the truth i've never heard of those brands.

from those two, i would go with kumho

Kumho Ecsta-I don't know the specific number but one of the variants of this is supposed to be darn near a street-legal road race tire.

I have some el cheapo Defender ZR's on mine, they are supposed to be a BFG Comp T/A knock off. I like'em. They are pretty sticky.

BTW Goodyears suck if you want handling. The soft sidewall issues of their truck tires carries into their passenger car tires.

If I had my choice of any tire, I would go with a BF Goodrich Comp T/A ZR. I think they discontinued them, though. They never would have been able to sell their new G-Force T/A's with the Comps still there. The Comp T/A was a hundred dollars cheaper per tire and didn't give up any performance to the G-force.

outta those 2 i'll say kumho

i have heard problems with both of them latly needing returns and what not so for safetys sake give a call to them see what it was all about.

Kuhmo makes a decent tire. I went with the new g-force TA and I am happy with how they handle.

what about BFG Comp T/A KDW ?
