Need tires for the focus..Kumho Ecsta MX?
Been reading a lot of reviews on these tires and receiving a pretty good impression. Great handling, great wet traction, and long treadlife (20k+ miles)
Anybody else here run them? |

I have 2 on the front and have already tossed 2 of them. The tread life sucked IMO, though they were stickier than the stock Goodyears.

Nitto 555 Radials. I've got approximately 30k miles on these tires and their still good tread on them. They'll finally be replaced this month.

They don't make those for the Focus Nathan.
Joseph, how soon do they wear out. I read somewhere where people were getting around 20-30k miles out of them
