List:
I have about 11K miles on the Kumhos now (on my '93), and they are
showing signs of wear. I had about 8K miles on the Azenis when I
wrecked my '91. The Azenis looked and acted almost like new.
NOTE: My wreck (full-side impact into guardrail) was specifically
caused by the Azenis hitting a small patch of wetness on an otherwise
dry tight bender. So, although they acted like new, they broke loose
catastrophically on a wet patch caused by a small drainage pipe (and I
was going too fast for the conditions).
I would bet that the Kumhos could make it to 20K, but I can't vouch for
what the performance will be by then.
The Kumhos are definitely quieter than the Azenis. Look at the tread
pattern and you can see why.

John, how was the tire noise with the 2 tires? What kind of
mileage did you get out of each?
