I heard they're great tires and stick better than the Ecsta V712 Supras I have. I find them to be very quiet and smooth, except that one AutoX run when the sun went down and the track was cold as well as the tires...you get the picture. Have Fun!

Re: Kuhmo Ecsta MX (STL94LT1)
I just got back from running the MX's at Watkins Glen for 2 days. They were brand new before the 700 mile trip to the track. I ran them hard and they show no signs of wear. They have excellent grip with -1.75* camber. My friends at the track were also impressed with the tires, they run R compound at the track.
I can't comment on noise, because my exhaust and worn weatherstripping make for a loud interior.

I just put a set (2) 270-40s and (2) 285-40s on my 94 coupe.
The difference in road noise and handling capacity is really great.
Had a set of Goodyears on before.really noisy and they didn't handle nearly as well. :thumbs: :yesnod: :seeya :flag
