Do you find the KumHos have a stiff sidewall? Or that they're quite flexible when cornering hard? As i miss the stiff sidewall that the Dunlop FM901s that i loved but they no longer make here.

As i'll be up for tyres early in the new year, and am thinking on some Toyos/Federals, or now maybe some Kumhos
