Kumho Ecsta HS51

If you expect your summer tyres to maintain grip on any surface and to be safe in different weather conditions, Kumho HS51 is the right solution.

The tyre uses a tread with an asymmetric pattern, which performs well on both dry and wet roads:

• The external side of the tread is responsible for the tyre’s performance on dry surfaces and for stability during cornering.

• The internal side cares for effective water drainage and for the tyre’s behaviour on wet surfaces.

With the wide circumferential grooves and numerous notches, the model quickly drains water, which makes for quick drying of the tread. This translates into good grip and excellent traction no matter the prevailing weather.

The tyre is based on the HDMS compound made of high-quality microsilica. It maintains flexibility in a wide range of temperatures so the tread always adheres to the surface across its maximum area. Thanks to this, cornering and sudden manoeuvres can be performed safely. The compound is also light which helps reduce rolling resistance and, consequently, fuel consumption.

Due to the even distribution of pressures acting against the tyre surface, the tread wears more slowly and evenly. As a result, you can enjoy the tyre’s high performance throughout its life without worrying about a reduction in driving safety and comfort with the passing of time. This ensures high mileage and makes the tyre more economical in use.
