Re: Anybody try Kumho Ecsta XS
Not yet - I just noticed yesterday that TireRack has them. I've been pleased with their V700 tires so the XSs will go on the car next.

Looks like Nitto has a few options also that might be good performers for the street. Their NT-01 did good for me.

Re: Anybody try Kumho Ecsta XS
I have had the Ecsta XSs on the Lingenfelter 385 twin turbo ZR-1 for about a month. I went with 335's on the rear and have them mounted on 12.5" rims. Front size is stock. The tires are very grippy, but the turbo ZR-1 can still break them loose at 100 mph
 I recommend the tires. However, it must be noted that the tread is assymetrical and the outer portion of the tread is correct for the left side of the car, but incorrect on the right hand side of the car. In other words, Kumho didn't make left and right hand specific tires, but probably should have given the tread pattern they chose. Can't beat the price, and the availability was good.Will Quote:
