Kumho WinterCraft WP51 175/70 R13 82T

Winter “friction” of the High Performance class for passenger sedans and city small cars. The medial area of the tread pattern of the tyre has a directional V-shaped design, which is done in order to increase the cessation properties of tyres on snow. The transverse blocks converge exactly to the middle of the tread, thereby forming an inextricable stiffening rib. As a result, Kumho WinterCraft WP51 175/70 R13 82T is characterized by excellent directional stability and responsiveness to steering commands.

Tyre tread blocks are studded with Honeycomb 3D Sipe sipes, reminiscent of honeycombs in their structure. When braking, the lamellas open up, forming multiple coupling edges, and with a straight trajectory of movement, they maintain the necessary rigidity of the tread pattern blocks. Additional traction on snow is provided by zigzag and cross-shaped drainage grooves, which are integral attributes of a highly efficient hydroevacuation system. The tread hardening in severe frosts is prevented by silica in the rubber compound of the model.
