5 weeks in and the tires are almost bald!
Worst product I've ever purchased! I contacted customer service and they sent me an email to make a insurance claim. Looks like I'm going to get the runaround. The website says it could take 3 months, pathetic!

My Sportage came with these tires
The Kunho tires that came with my car started falling apart at about 16000 miles. Chunks of the tires were coming out of the tread. I was on vacation in S.C. and could not find a dealer to warranty the defect so I replaced them with Good year tires. I told the tire store to keep them as I didn't have the room in my car to take them with me. This was a $700.00 plus expense I should not have incurred. DO NOT BUY!!!!

Treadware needs help
I have 235/35 R19's as OEM on my 2022 EV 6. After 19000 miles, I already need new tires. I have a GT line model and drive in Eco mode 95% of the time. I make sure to not over inflate the tires/manufacturer recommendation.
I know EV tires can run through tires faster, but to me, this is terrible life for a tire on a car.

Kumho Crugen HP71 Poor Wear 35k only
2019 Mercedes Benz GLS450 20". The Kumho Crugen HP71 is rated to last 65K miles but only lasted 24K all the way to the wear bar indicators I had bought new tires back on 8/2022 with 57K miles on my wife's car. I just replaced them 3/2024 with 81k miles on the car. Something is not right with the rubber compound. Fortunately, Discount Tire credited the premature wear on new tires. Thank goodness for Discount Tire.

The Kumho Crugen HP 71 is an all-season tire that is designed for use on CUVs and SUVs, and offers drivers great performance, long tread life, fantastic handling, great traction plus a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty.
Features & Benefits
All-season tread
Black sidewall
65,000 mile manufacturer tread life warranty
Variable Pitch Technology to reduce road noises for a quiet, comfortable drive.
CUV and SUV drivers require a tire that performs year-round and has a long lifespan; all-season tires are designed with those drivers in mind. To improve wet traction, the Kumho Crugen HP 71 tire's four wide grooves remove water from the tread, reducing the risk of hydroplaning, while its sipes clear slush from the tread for improved winter traction. The Crugen HP71 tire not only helps with handling performance but also ensures that the tire wears evenly over time thanks to its strengthened center rib and shoulders. Ideal for use on CUVs and SUVs, the Kumho Crugen HP 71 is a great choice for vehicles like the Audi Q7, Cadillac Escalade, Dodge Durango, Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Santa Fe, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Kia Sorento, Mazda CX-3, Toyota Rav4, and Volkswagen Atlas.
Yes, Kumho Crugen HP71 tires are a great choice for drivers of CUVs and SUVs who want strong traction year round and improved ride comfort. The Crugen HP71 also offers drivers a long tread life and better handling performance.
Kumho Crugen HP71 tires are backed by a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty. That means the Crugen HP71 is expected to last at least 65,000 miles assuming proper use, maintenance, and rotation are followed.
Crugen HP71 tires could be made at one of Kumho's factories in the United States, South Korea, or Vietnam.
No, Kumho Crugen HP71 tires are not noisy. Variable Pitch Technology works with the optimized tread pattern of the Crugen HP71 to reduce road noises and vibrations for a quiet, comfortable ride.
Yes, Kumho Crugen HP71 tires can be used in light snow thanks to their full depth siping and lateral voids that remove slush from the tire to enhance grip in winter weather. The Crugen HP71 is not Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified, so it not be used in moderate to severe winter weather conditions.
No, Kumho Crugen HP71 tires are not directional. The symmetrical tread pattern of the Crugen HP71 allows the tire to be freely rotated across a CUV or SUV for a longer tread life.
Kumho Crugen HP71 tires are made by the Kumo Tire company, which is a subsidiary of the Kumho Asiana Groups.
