WHAT OWNERS SAY
❝
The Ecsta 4x’s are a great value choice in this tire category (High Performance All Seasons). I say value because they were not meant to outperform the top brands, but to stand alongside at least a few of them. Performance is better than I expected.
❝
So far, I’m liking these tires. They are quiet and quite competent in the handling department. They may give up a bit of response to the Michelin PS A/S+ but the difference is not worth the price premium for the Michelin’s.
❝
The mold that was used to make my particular set suffered from a weird line that ran across the tread. It looked like a crack but was limited to the surface. I didn’t consider it an issue as long as it didn’t get larger. I’ve seen other Kumho Ecsta 4x’s with this mold line/crack.
❝
The four wide circumferential grooves running around the tread do a solid job of channeling water away from the contact patch. During several days of heavy rain driving — including highway speeds on standing water — I experienced no hydroplaning events. The tire maintains its planted feel even when the road surface is thoroughly soaked.
❝
The Ecsta 4x’s are a great handling tire. Turn in is crisp and grip is plentiful. Ultimate grip is shy of the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S+ that I had on previously, but for the money saved, I won’t knock off too much. I won’t notice it on the street.
❝
Treadwear was as expected. I replaced them a little before their time due to an irreparable puncture but I was satisfied by the mileage. I accumulated maybe 30,000 miles on them.
❝
My final verdict – The Kumho Ecsta 4x’s are a nice performance value but not as well rounded as Michelin’s offering. The money you save reflects in what you get. Performance is great but the ride quality suffers. More expensive tires provide good performance numbers and also provide good ride characteristics.
❝
This is the area I will fault the tire. Ride quality is not as good as the Michelin’s or not great in general. It feels rougher and less refined on imperfect roads. The carcass at times feels like it has a spring to it that translates into a bit of a jiggle.
❝
I feel like the sidewalls are super squishy and makes it feel a bit
❝
I was genuinely impressed by the noise levels. On smooth highway surfaces, the KU22 is quiet — noticeably quieter than the Hankook Ventus V12 evo2 I tested previously, and on par with some touring tires I’ve reviewed. There’s a gentle hum at highway speeds, but nothing intrusive.
