Just letting everyone know. I just picked up 2 sets of the V720's 305/30R19's for $632. I haven't ran them yet but reviews looked decent. Good daily tire and they run decent on the track. Regardless I couldn't pass up the price. They have 20 tires left in stock. Snatch em up!

What rating and load range?

That is a blowout price? Anyone had these?

I am looking for affordable quality options, myself.

I think they 220 AA A
load range 120 or same as factory trofeo's I made sure they matched speed and load ratings.

I should be getting them mounted tomorrow depending how busy my service dept is. I’ll keep you guys posted. I figured even if the tires suck ass...a whole set is cheaper than 1 Trofeo

What are the dates on the tires? They usually discount tires when they start to age.

I hate to be the "downer" guy on this thread but. I was looking at these tires on tire rack a month ago and a couple of the reviews were negative and alarming. Some of the buyers said these tires de laminate and come apart at high speed. I didn't want to keep this to myself especially for the guys tracking there cars.

I saw a couple reviews like that as well. However I read more saying they didn't have issues. I'm fairly certain every tire you look at will have a negative review or two. Again, for the price of the tire, they could be shot at 3k miles and I'm still ahead of buying Trofeo's or comparables

Got the Kumhos mounted. They look good, not as squared up as the Trofeos and they certainly don’t ride the same. They’re quieter, ride quality is better for daily drivability IMO, they do sway a bit though. Hard to explain but you don’t feel quite as planted or stuck to the ground as you do with the Trofeos. I’ll get some pics up ASAP
