Got some new skins mounted up...DOT legal too.. NT01s have been out of stock and these Kumhos are the only tire available in my size right now. Heard great things about them...

had them on a different car, loved them street and track, awesome grip and no issues

 

That's the word I got. It better be true....I have 7 more sets in my basement.

 

I can attest to the basement inventory.


BTW, I never received this picture. It's way better then the one you sent me.

 

7 sets= baller status lol
Look forward to hearing how you like them
Cheers,

 

Hey brother. Yeah, a friend of mine came by the house and mounted them up today. Can't wait to try them. Saw the goodies going on your car today at the shop. The 997Cup arms are a thing of beauty. Should be mounted on the wall and not on the car.

 

I take the COSTCO approach to auto supplies...been burned way too many times with consumables I use being out of stock at the worst time.

Tire **** alert!!!

 

LOL. Thanks for the update. BTW anyone reading this tread, pwdrhound is the crazy one, not me. He has an even better setup on his car. I still run street tires on my stock 997 rims at the track but, would love to see you run these.

 

I think this photo should have its own thread. "Who has the most track gear?" I know those PFC's cost at least $1000 for two boxes, tires? I have no idea. Way more than I can pay for.

 

No one needs ketchup in gallon size bottles but it comes out cheaper that way. You know I love a good deal! If people quit buying up my inventory I wouldn't need to stock up. I bet one of those sets has your name all over it. Your sizes too...

 

Even though I like 20's, I prefer a gallon of mustard, unless its tires and I happen to be at the track. Since my last set lasted me 2 days.


Hopefully this new set will last longer.


What is the tread wear on this new setup compared to your Nitto setup? Since the Kuhmos are more of a slick setup, will they wear more due to the compound?


I would think that there will be a happy medium here at some point.

 

NT01s are tread wear 100, Kumhos are 30. It's all relative. Slicks don't have a tread wear rating. I get about 500 miles on the Nittos. If I get 350-400 on the Kumhos I'd be thrilled. Hoosiers are only good for about 200-250 so the Kumhos should be a happy medium. Fingers crossed. Chris won't even get 1 day out if the Hoosiers. He doesn't just wear out tires, he crushes them.

I bet you will drop a few sec off your lap time with the Kumho v710s

 

A turbo on 710's!!!! My life would be complete...

I used 710's for most of my conekilling career.
