Have about 1,000 miles with them on my F 250, and they seem every bit as good as the Michelins they replaced. So far, I'm glad that I took the chance!

For this review, the tires or brands of tires...doesn't matter. I have used "Simple Tire" a few times the past couple of years for tires and also needed to return a couple... Excellent delivery times! Superb customer service! I highly recommend Simple tire.com!

Put these on my wife's Toyota Highlander which is AWD and they perform great in everything, they remind me of the Michellen ltx . I would definitely recommend these on SUV type vehicle's.

My mileage went down after replacing these with the stock tires on my 2011 Nissan Frontier SV. I wish I'd spent a little more on something else that wouldn't have not affected my gas mileage as much (lost about 2 MPG). These tires were also a pain to get balanced...shaking at high speeds. I would not buy these again due to the above two reasons. I don't have many miles on these tires.

These Kumho Crugens are so perfect for my Xterra... they handle every driving situation I've encountered, and with Winter coming soon, I expect them to perform extremely well. Kumho brand tires are very impressive. I bought them based upon the result of high marks across multiple review sites. Glad I did the research!

Never got a chance to try them out due to the listing online was very misleading and I was under the impression that the tires came with rims like I saw in the pictures but they didn't so they didn't fit my car because my current rims were a size smaller than the tires themselves. Delivery was fast though and customer service was very nice and helpful
