Top 3 Kumho Ecsta+Sport+S+PS72 Reviews

Given 97% while driving a Jaguar F Type (295/30 R20) on a combination of roads for 1,000 average miles
After a few thousand kilometers, I had the OE tire Pirelli P Zero removed and the Kumho Ecsta Sport S installed.
The only thing that is roughly the same is the noise level inside the vehicle.
In everything else that happens on the road, the Ecsta Sport S is superior by far.
Grip on both wet and dry roads, shorter braking distances, better acceleration, better steering and better feedback.
If you don't overdo it, this tire just doesn't want to slip.
I have the impression that I have a changed car.
Unbeatable price/performance ratio.

Given 85% while driving a Ford Focus ST250 (235/40 R18) on mostly motorways for 1,000 spirited miles
Changed them for the SportContacts 6, the grip is almost the same at the 50% price, a little bit more noisy, better road feel. would recomend. Can’t rate the wear yet.

Given 82% while driving a BMW M4 (295/30 R20) on mostly motorways for 500 spirited miles
I was looking for a lower price tyre to change my old Michelin PSS’s. If you buy the S version the TWI is 260. On dry road feels good, grippy enough, i dont know how’s it in the wet, i don’t drive when it’s raining. It has pretty stiff sidewalls, a PS4S is much more comfy. But the road feedback is good, handling is fast and responsive. tread depth is around 7MM new.
TBH im a Michelin fan, but at this price… it is one of the best tyres. Sidewalls are good looking, almost Michelin satin like texture. They don’t look cheap.
(I was able to get the set of 4 for $700)
