Default New Kumho Ecsta V710 Track/Performance/Drag Radial Tires for $179.00

New Kumho V710 tires in 335-30-19 size. Perfect for C6 Z06 or Grand Sport Corvette 19x12 wheels! Same tire height as stock, so no issues.

We have an opportunity to purchase these tires at great pricing.
Tire Rack sells them discounted for 359.00 each. Our price would be 179.00 each, if we can get 20 tires sold. Thats only 10 orders really. Again, they are new, not blems if there is such a thing for tires.

These are exceptional for road and track, and as drag radials.

More tire info from the web- The Kumho ECSTA V710 radials are Track & Competition DOT tires developed for drivers who want Kumho's highest level of performance for dry track conditions. Compared to Kumho's VictoRacer and Ecsta V700 tires, Ecsta V710 radials are designed to provide quicker turn-in response, as well as increased traction and cornering speeds. In addition to looking like pro-level racing slicks, Ecsta V710 tires perform like them as well, trading longevity for performance.

Kumho ECSTA V710 radials meet DOT requirements, they are street legal.

Shipping will run 10-20.00 per tire to lower 48 states.

Thanks,

Nate

Yes, only 335 available.

No personal experience with these tires, but have seen lots of customers run them as drag radials.

Thanks,

Nate

Two questions:

1) Will these be the rounded or squared shoulder versions; and

2) Since these are "H" speed-rated (not Z, W or Y), will this be a problem at the track?

Thanks.

I will jump in here. Tire Rack shows the V710 as Sq shoulder and a speed rating 103W. There is only 1 tire available in this size so there can be no mistake.

Concerning date codes on the tires, most are 2008 and newer.

The tires are new and still under warranty until at least 2013/2014.
Kuhmo says they have a 6 year shelf life and they warranty
every tire for that span of time.

We have several members interested but again ,we need 20 tires sold for the good price.
If the interest is there and if it looks like we can sell 20 tires, will add the tires to our website for easy purchasing.

Thanks,

Nate

I'm interested but I need to know what to run on the fronts for track use. Nate, you said to ask here on the CF so can someone suggest a front tire for this combo. Also, any rubbing problems going to the 335s on the back. Someone here recently had a rubbing problem with the Nitto NT05 335 on the rear. Just asking.
