Thought I'd give an update on the Khumos.

Following the success of the KU31s I went in for new rear tyres but they'd run out. What he did have was KH31s. The H is supposed to be harder wearing - same price (£92 each fitted etc.) and isn't directional so I can keep switching them over after the roundabouts scrub one side raw.

Been about a 1000 miles in them now and grippy they ain't. The tyres I took off were pretty much slicks and they grip less than that! After the first roundabout it wasn't just the road that had skid-marks. What was the term above? Ah yes, chinese ditch finders. Perfect description.

Lesson learned. The KU31s are worth a try but unless you're a really sedate driver, don't bother with the KH31s.
