I bought the Kuhmo 712's about a year ago. I am very happy with them. As mentioned though they are summer only tires. I haven't tried them on the ice or snow.

I've tried them on snow. For a WHOLE Toronto winter too.

Let's just say it's an experience I'd like to forget...

Except for how easy it was to produce a 4 wheel drift...

I was also burnt by the stupidity of getting tires from tirerack.com with no road hazard. Only about 5k on a set of 225/45/17 yoko avs sports and I hit a small pothole that wrecked the sidewall to the tune of $170.

Road hazard warranty is the only way to go.
