That is problem #1. It is always a terrible idea to have different tires on the right and left side of the car. Front and back is *ok* but not good, but you need to have the same tires on each side of the car for predictable handling and traction.

Kumhos, generally, are pretty loud tires though, especially when they're getting worn below 50%...
