I have Nankang tires and the tread is awsome!!!! They are a soft tire and they grip really good, I am very pleased.

I would get the Kuhmos because more people have them, so hopefully they are good. Never heard of nakang. Also, check out tirerack.com for a lot of reviews and ratings of the kuhmos.
Oh and give Vic a call at Discount Tire in el monte (http://www.wheeloptions.com) and see if he can beat the best price you got for cash out the door. Last time he beat the best price by quite a bit for me.

I think with shipping, it usually ends up being more than a really good local deal. But if you check out this particular discount tire's site (http://www.wheeloptions.com) see if you want any particular rim and tire packages. A lot of their deals are pretty good, like they were gonna sell me 17" gunmetal 5Zigen Fireball rims with tires for 1200 out the door.

i work in tires too. it's been my experience as an installer that both tires suck. nankang's i've seen somewhat. nothing special. kumho's are the new trend. they're a korean company that can make cheaper performance tires by using cheaper materials. your getting what you pay for. if you know anyone that's lived in korea, ask them if they would buy korean tires.
