Glad they came out with good $$$... I was talking with the next door neighbor last night and he has some Kuhmo's on his Manaro, and raved about them...Has gotten K's and K's out of them, and says far better then the crap on the car stock (think it was a bridgestone)...Just cant remember which one he has... Think I might consider them when its time for replacing the Dunlops myself!BTW- like any sales guy, he will try to sell u what he has in stock 9 times out of 10, unless you are a referral or known... Same as any business, I hate to say it but I used to do it when I had my phone stores and teach the sales guys "Sell what you have, not what you dont have"...Hence - I always say when it comes to price/discounting "my Chinese made crap from that blue factory is better then their Chinese made crap from the same factory"... You make up your mind... Your here now... so why not? So when and where I can I shop where I know people, that will order what "I want or need" and if not then with people that know someone I know... Simple rule of thumb! Edited 28/05/08 07:04 AM by smicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooltint Member 686 Member For: 21y 9m 6d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast QLD Posted 30/05/08 08:59 AM Share Posted 30/05/08 08:59 AM I'm also running the Marangonis in 19's and have been extremely happy with them wet or dry. They're wearing quite well and I'm expecting at least 30k out of them. I paid $280 each so you should be able to do better on the 18's.Big AL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
