Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
Tire A Crugen HP71
Pros
- Strong value: frequently described as much cheaper than Michelin, Pirelli or Bridgestone alternatives while not feeling like a budget tire.
- Good wet and heavy-rain traction, with some reports of confident light-snow performance.
- Quiet, smooth ride reported by many owners, often as an improvement over the stock tires (Bridgestone Dueler, Pirelli, Hankook).
Cons
- Premature or uneven tread wear is the most common complaint, with reports of tires worn out at roughly 15,000 to 27,000 miles or within 1.5 years, far below the 65,000-mile rating.
- Road and highway noise, including howling that develops with mileage, reported by several owners.
- Vibration and difficulty keeping the tires balanced, in some cases even after repeated balancing and rotations.
Tire B Geolandar SUV
Pros
- Exceptional tread longevity and durability
- High level of ride comfort
- Strong structural integrity against road hazards like potholes
Cons
- Poor grip and traction in wet weather conditions
- Not suitable for high-performance driving
- Lack of confidence-inspiring handling during cornering in rain

Tire A
Mixed
Kumho Crugen HP71
Community opinions on the Kumho Crugen HP71 (including EV variants) are generally mixed, primarily leaning on price and initial comfort versus longevity. Many users appreciate the affordable pricing, quiet/smooth ride, and good handling, but a significant number report faster-than-expected tread wear and occasional issues with foam lining separation or durability on heavier vehicles.

“Kumho warranty I had these for a little under 18 months. The thread is still good, but the tires have these cracks. Do you guys think I can claim warranty from Kumho? These are Kumho Crugen HP71. Manufacturing date 01/24.”

“Bought a set of Kumho tires to replace the OE Michelins on the wife's Ford Edge. The Michelins have barely 35K and aren't going to pass the NC safety check. For being a top tier tire they were wildly mediocre. I've has several sets of Kumho and they are better than average and not too expensive. I bought four of these. Anybody have experience with Kumhos? Kumho Crugen HP71 245 /60 R18 105V SL BSW”

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
