Been running these on my Ford F250 for a year now and theyre solid. 

They handle really well in both highway and city driving. There’s a bit more road noise compared to my last set, but it’s not a dealbreaker. The treadwear is good, and they’ve held up great in different weather conditions.

These Kumho Crugen HT51s are fantastic! Put them on my Highlander and theyve been great for over a year. Theyre durable, provide a smooth ride, and handle well in the rain. I havent had any issues with them, and they’re wearing evenly. Definitely recommend these tires for anyone looking for a reliable longlasting option.

Bought these tires about two years ago and now can rate them. So, I'm very satisfied their traction in snow. They perform great, taking into account the fact that these are all season tires. In the wet and dry conditions they work well too. I could say they have only one drawback and this is not great wet braking, the car is slipping slightly.
