Haven't been great

I bought these tires for autocross. The tires do a lot of screeching and grip is okay. Had issues getting the tires installed through Simple Tire, and had to contact the installer myself to get it sorted out. Now, one tire has been peeling and shredding strips of rubber. I believe it is a manufacturer defect. I contacted Simple Tire and they were no help, wanted me to jump through a bunch of hoops to get the tire warrantied. I would not recommend the tires or Simple Tire. Currently ordering new tires through a different company. These Kenda's have less than 500 miles on them.

Autocross/daily s550 mustang.

Great tire for daily use aside from snow, haven't tried and don't plan to. I ran a season on these in autox, happy with them overall but if you plan to autox or would like more grip get the 200tw ones. I have the 3, maybe they'll last longer but it seems like the 200tw have quite a bit more grip. Overall 8/10.

Amazing tires I daily drive on them and drift

Amazing tires have been using them for daily driving and for drifting. Good consistent traction,the sidewalls are alittle soft and get alittle heat soaked but not horrible.

Inexpensive tire that's good for track days.

I was looking for a cheap 200TW tire to mount on an extra set of wheels for occasional track days to preserve wear on my daily tires. The Kenda Kaiser KR20A's have been perfect. They have great dry weather grip, provide good feedback, and you can't beat the price point. I'm not sure that these would be the fastest tire in a timed event, but for HPDE or track lapping, they work well for me. I'm not sure I would recommend these tires for daily driving. They are LOUD with lots of road noise on the highway.

Very impressed with these tires.

Put these on my '82 foxbody with a 331 stroker. Get pretty sticky when you get some heat in them and hold power well. Wet roads also not a problem if you get caught in the rain. For the price they are top notch!
