Definitely the worse tire I've ever tried. In braking and cornering their whistle is so loud that seems you're always at the limit.. indeed the limit with this tires comes really soon. But the real problem comes on the wet after about 5000 miles of use: the grip is terrible..and not in the sense that you have a poor grip but that the grip changes dramatically at each change of asphalt! to give an example: you are treading a wet corner at 60 mph, the next one has the same breadth but with different asphalt and sometimes happens that if you don't reduce to 45 mph your speed you can be sure to slip out, while all the other vehicles on your front are keeping the same speed with no problems!! Once I save only thanks to the handbrake! I add that the grip on the snow after 5000 miles is about the same of a normal summer tire.. I hope my set was defective, if not I ask myself how Kumho can sell a so dangerous product. Thrown in the trash..

Put the KH21s on my old Scenic at the end of January 2010, since then have done only about 2000 miles in mostly normal conditions. Grip in wet and dry both good, no tendancy to break away at the speeds I do - not slow, not mad - and the road feedback is fine, can't say I have driven them anywhere near the limits of stability. Somewhat noisier then the previous set of tires but that is not to say they are intrusive and anyway what with the rattles and squeaks in the car I don't notice. Wear seems good but with only 2k miles too early to say. For the money and my needs they are a good buy and I'd recommend them for 'normal' everyday use.
