You didn't search. I did. Send me a few $$ via paypal for doing the work.

Obviously there isn't any one who has used them much! (at least not on this site)

I searched the other day for info on this tire, found very little on other boards. Not a clue....

Is there a 15" available now?

The MX is leaps and bounds over the 712. I have not used them yet but woudl consider it if the price were right. There is a Z06 that auto-x's loacally and he picked up 1-1.5 secs on the same track by using MX's over the stock tires.

Trey - clicky

They get excellent ratings on tirerack. Is this halfway between the 712 and V700's??

I would saw yes. They are aimed to compete with the Azenis but with a water freindly tread pattern IMO.

I don't have any experience with MX, but one thing that I noticed about Kumho tires are that they run narrow compared to their advertised size. Or, maybe that other competitions have wider tires than advertised. (Kumho's 205mm width is really narrow compared to Bridgestone, Pirelli, etc.)

Judging from what I have seen and stating I really like the ES100 I think the MX is a better performance tire.
