• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

HAPPY KUMHO DAY

HAPPY KUMHO DAY TODAY.... :thumbup: :bowdown:

I RECEIVED A REPLY FROM KUMHO TIRE CO., LOOK BELOW...

Hi Dan,

I am glad that the Kumho Tire Brand is working out well for you. In regards to your inquiry, the Kumho AST KU25 in the size that you are looking for has not been discontinued. The AST’s are actually dealer specific and you can find them at any Discount Tire Center.

Best Regards,



Chris Han

Now you either don't tell them its for a motorcycle or you band together in a group and simply order four, eliminating the stupid questions. I love my Kumhos through three Spyders. I may buy 4 just to have them in back up now that I will two Spyders
 
Good to know..!!

seems there is more to it...but glad you got it cleared up. Now if you could get the tire shop to just sel you the tires...:thumbup:
 
Well, I'm gonna go buy a Tacoma...

...and let it sit in the yard: unregistered, and up on blocks! :D
At least I'll have an excuse for the tire purchase! :thumbup:
 
Got my Kumho Ecasta AST

I called my local American Tire Discount store and they said this tire was a special order $90 and it arrived three days later.
I told them it was a spare for my Kia Rio so I only needed the one tire. Kumho Ecsta AST 225/50/15R

Tried ordering one last week from Discount Tire and never said what vehicle it was going on. Got the dreaded phone call and they seem not to have any in stock anywhere. So I opted for a Michelin
 
ONLY NEED TO ORDER TWO

..................I had no issues with Discount tires direct when I ordered TWO................They just said "PUT THEM ON THE SAME AXEL " ....of my Tacoma :roflblack:

It couldn't get along with "G" and "I":bdh:
 
I have no idea what the letter means. The AST is dealer specific? What does that mean. The sentence before they say it has been discontinued. Is this the tire that some are putting on the front? The Ecsta is the one for the rear.
 
Kumhos tire on my RS 2008 spider.
