We have Kumhos on our 1st gen Durango and they are great in spring, summer and fall (we have Blizzaks for winter), we also have them on our 2013 Rogue and they are not good in snow or wet conditions. We had Eagle LS on our sedan when we got it and they were the most horrible tire I have ever had. They were OK above 50* and that is the only god thing I can say. They were replaced with BFG Comp 2 which actually are pretty good in the wet and snow and were $126 for 225/18/55. I have yet to unintentionally spin these, let alone have the back end slide out like the Eagle LS. Yes, 43mph (can feel it downshift at 43mph, that's how I know) on an off-ramp when it was 45* when the back end came out and I usually take it at 70mph in the Durango in the same conditions.

Kumho Solus on the truck and Ecsta on the Rogue.
