Actually niether one, but then I'm no Kumho fan either. You would get more replies by providing more information, tire size, type of intended driving, budget, etc

Default 17" DP Enduro wheels

I've had Kumho 711's before and they lasted me 18,000 miles and were smooth all the way down to the belt. The new tires are going on 17" Dp Enduro 3 piece wheels, with 225/45-17 in front and 255/40-17 in the back. I've seen a lot of reviews on Tirerack in which the Ecsta Mx beat the Fuzion, G-Force and other higher priced tires, but don't know much about the Spt...

someone have any opinion of Toyo tires . .? I like the unidirectional tires, but I'm not sure if are the best in wed conditions .. here in Panama we have rains about 8 month per year ..

I already have Toyo 235/45 17 front and 275/40 17 rear ..

Default Toyo's

How are the Toyo's working out? How many miles you have on them? I had a set of the Toyo Nitto tires years ago, and it didn't last more than 15,000 miles, but it was pretty good. I've had good experiences with Kumho, way better than I had with Falkens, but not with these two new models they have, the Ecsta MX and the SPT.
