I think that corresponds to treadwear somehow. Tirerack has all that info on their site.

I have Khumo Ecstas on and they perform as well as can be expected, I guess. I can get the rear to progressively step out on the Steel st. off ramp from 512 e/b. But thats w/ the Whiteline RSB, also.

I'd say they're good enough for the price to reccomend.

My falken ZE-912s were dirt cheap. $73 each for 225/50-16.

Not as good in snow, especially the deep stuff, as I was hoping, but that could be partly to do with the width. Probably better than RE92s at any rate. They're apparently one of the best all-seasons out there.

I don't really have any major complaints, but they make me miss my stiff sidewalled and ultra sticky summer tires.

Otherwise the Kuhmo ASX is pretty cheap and not terrible.

I noticed the Yokohama AVS ES100s are available in that size. Avoid them if you want long life.


If the BFG G-force sport were available in that size I would recommend them, but they aren't......
