[alfa] My Kumho experience (NAC)

["Gordy Hyde" <gohyde@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My experience with the 712s is limited to _fast_ rides at PIR in fellow 
digester Joe Cantrell's "warmed-up" Spider.  As I recall he bought them as 
they were a good deal.  I was running (and still am) 711s as everyday and 
track tires on my Sportwagen (Hondarati).  I put over 40 psi on the right 
side for the track days to keep them from keeling under too far 
(counter-clockwise track).  I have no complaints using them in the wet (This 
is a Seattle-ite talking).  Three years ago I took Michael Smith's advice 
from the digest and mounted Hakkepellittas in the winter (LOVE them too).  
When I take the Hak's off this spring, I will need to replace the Kumho's on 
the right side which have just over 35k on them.  The left side ones should 
get me through at least one more summer season.
Oh, I paid $95/corner mounted, balanced, and taxed.
Just one person's experience.
