Default EDDIE@Tirerack: I'm very disappointed with my Ecsta v700, is it possible to return/exchange?

i bought this in january, i've heat cycled this set on a racetrack for 20mins but its more loose than my street tires in my last autox. gum doesnt even build up during autox, only small strips built up during the track event
a couple of times i've read/heard that kumho changed the compound for the new tires. who do i write to or call? somebody from kumho US? TIA

I'm curious: why post this here? This is not Tirerack's customer service forum...

Default put in a little more effort figuring it out, you'll get there =)

probably you should have just emailed me your questions so you don't make the same 'mistake' I did - letting other people know my review... of a TIRE (wheels&tires forum?) and probably we'll see how it could be handled by the FORUM MODERATOR Eddie@TIRERACK who technically sold me the tires

Ed-

Race tires are sold no warranty/ as - is. Due to the unique nature & the intended use of that type of tire.

As with ANY tire we sell, once they are driven on there is no return of the items.

The Ecstas ARE a different animal & do require a different setup then the Victoracers, so you may not have the car setup to optimize them, either.

Call me & I can discuss.
