Video reviews

The HS51 model from the portfolio of the South Korean brand Kumho was initially positioned as a typical urban "resident" of the comfort class. But already after the launch into mass production, drivers and reviewers appreciated the sports potential of rubber, which is why after some time the prefix of the Ecsta line “stuck” to it.

Coupling qualities

The sharpness of the tyre for high-speed travel can be seen in the asymmetric design of the tread pattern. "At the head of the table" of the treadmill is a trio of inextricable stiffening ribs with diagonal notches. The sharp edges of these "teeth" form many additional links of the tyre's grip on the roadway. The space between the circumferential ribs is occupied by hydroevacuation channels, through which excess water masses are removed from the contact spot.

Stability is a sign of mastery

In the "shoulders" of the tyre there are blocks of different widths with transverse grooves. They increase driving stability and help to maintain the correct trajectory when manoeuvring. That's just because of the excessive softness of the tyre can sometimes seem like a roll when laying dashing turns. Her prerogative is a more relaxed driving style without rebuilding in the flow in checkers.

Versatility

Kumho Ecsta HS51 impresses with its versatility. It looks equally appropriate in the urban rhythm of movement and is suitable for long-distance trips along the highway. During car rides, the tyre will give a high level of driving comfort and will delight you with low noise when rolling, which is what you expect from a good rubber of a strong middle link.
