? For Dexter

HEY THERE,

I WAS LOOKING AT THE KUMHO KU19'S FOR MY WRX, WHAT GIVES THEM A RATING OF ONLY 3 STARS? WAS IT NOISE OR TREADWEAR?

THANKS FOR THE INFORMATION.

J0SE

BTW, WHY AREN'T THERE ANY PICS OF THESE TIRES?

The star ratings are solely for the tires' warranties. Don't let that confuse you with how well the tire is liked. The higher performance the tire, the fewer warranty stars it generally has. The KU19 is an excellent tire - I drove on them a couple weeks ago. I was very impressed with it's smoothness combined with tremendous responsiveness.
