The physical dimensions of these Kumho tires do not match the size printed on their sidewalls. This has caused me severe hardship and ruined my vehicle. I drive a full-time all-wheel-drive (AWD) vehicle. After one of my rear tires blew out, I purchased two new Kumho tires in the factory-specified size of 285/45 R19. However, these tires do not actually conform to the dimensions stamped on them. Because of this size discrepancy, my transfer case and differential broke and had to be replaced twice.
