Kumho Ecsta sport tyres

I've had these tyres fitted to my mgf for about 12 months now (205/40r17) and have been more than impressed with the grip and handling but thought I'd give an update.

Just had a week up in scotland, checked the tyre pressures before going there, covered just over 2000 miles of spirited b road driving, and checked the tyre pressures just before leaving for home and were still normal but noticed that both rear tyres the side walls had failed on the inside and the outside edge so i'm guessing that the tyres aren't up to the job :(, tread depth is still as new

luckily a local tyre dealer had a pair of toyo's in stock for £60 each



some pictures

offside rear, cracking fully around tyre in a line









nearside rear appears to have cracked over a larger area





there are also signs of the tread corners lifting
