I fancy the Kumhos, which gets good reviews............but List 1B actually shows only the Kumho Ecsta V700, and when I rang the MSA to check, they said the V70A wouldn't be valid - but as far as I can see, the V70A has superceded the V700.

Anyone able to confirm V70A is legit?

Many thanks,

Not sure why you need to ask the question if the MSA has already said no. However they are still produced and are still on the Kumho website so you shouldnt have to much trouble getting them.
The main thing is if you go for V70A which are not listed you will be excluded, I have seen a lot of people running R888 on high power cars and they seem to think they work well.
