Mrel 1st Gear September 9, 2011 Share September 9, 2011 (edited) Narrowed down to this 2 tyres. Price wise about the same. Can any bros advise??? Heard that there are 2 sources for KU31, Viet and Korea. If I got from a dealer listed from Binter, does it mean that it will be from Korea?

Chrispie 5th Gear September 9, 2011 Share September 9, 2011 been on KU31 for lat 31k km.. cheap and good. decent stopping distance and threads still deep after such high mileage. I have an insensitive butt.. so actually, even when i drove cars thats on premium tyres.. i also cant feel the difference.. :p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tohto Hypersonic September 9, 2011 Share September 9, 2011 Hankook K415 is a comfort tyre. KU31 is performance tyre. You should compare with Hankook V12. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
