Those tires are okay. I think Techcontib has those tires on his car. When I drove it, I didn't get the chance to "push" the car to test the limits of the tires...so I can't vouch for the grip they offer.

That's what it looks like...

For comparison's sake, here's the specs on the Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 712:

205/40WR17 80W 280 AA A

So the HAnkook has a higher treadwear rating, but the Kumho has a AA traction rating, while the Hankook has a A rating.

The Hankook has an "H" speed rating, which means it's good to 130 mph, while the Kuhmo has a "W" rating, which means it's good to 168 mph (all according to the tirerack.com).

Looks like a good tire. The Kuhmo might be better for racing, but for everyday driving, I think the Hankook should do the job very well.
