Based on TireRack reviews and price I recommended the Kumho Solus KR21 to a couple of friends. One set showed heavy tread wear in short order and the other showed a sidewall bubble...both at about 2 years and 14000 miles.

The sidewall bubble was "not covered by warranty" and further, the KR 21 is no made and "we can't get them anymore." I'm embarrassed I recommended them to friends who thought I was a knowledgeable car guy.

Just limited experience.
