Kumho Ecsta SPT

[Siver Bullet]

Do you guys know if the Kumho Ecsta SPT runs wider than other tires? Or should I be fine with usual 245 35 r19, 275 30 r30? thanks

What size rims are you running. On my 19" Axis Shine's I'm running 235/35R19 up front and 265/20R19 out back. Rims are 8.5 up front and 9.5 out back.

Im looking into V710 same sizes as you are running. 35mm offset up front and 45 outback, but I might wanna get the 235/265 if they run wider.

Sent you a reply, might help you some. Are your fenders cut/rolled?

The SPT would be considered an avaerage size casing. You will be fine with those sizes. Assuming the wheels are correct.

They run normal from my experience.

They run average width for the size. I ran those same widths (just on the stock 17" wheel), and after grinding my fenders had no issues rubbing at all.

I will tell you that those tires have *terrible* treadwear - they did not last long for me at all. I put 2-3 sets on before finally getting fed up with how quickly they wore. No burnouts, just occasional aggressive driving.

Mine have worn really well, I was kind of surprised to have read your post. I've had them for over a year now and have about 10k on them. They would have lasted to 20k+, but after I got the maggie, Hehe... they haven't held up like they were, but I'd say they would make it to 15k for me. Not bad for the price I paid for them.

Do you have stock suspension? I noticed mine were cupping really bad and wearing the inner shoulders until I replaced my stock suspension. They are wearing much better now....

I ran a 275/40/17 for 100 miles before i had dicount put Falkens back on because they rubbed. I did not feel like moding my fenders. A 265 would probably work without cutting/rolling the fenders.

Ya I was thinking of 265's for rear just so when I do roll it I wont have any rubbing ( I HATE RUBBING!!!!)
