I am a central west dealer for Kumho - Cowra One Stop Auto Shop. Forget about dealing with Kumho, I have waited more than six days for orders to arrive. The sales Rep had made no effort to return my calls to update me on where their product was after promising me he would. I enquired the last three business days for updates on where the product… was. Kumho made no attempt to track the freight at any time, just stating there was a problem with their freight. Absolutely no customer service. Go else where if you can. Don’t support business’ that don’t support the dealer and
