Kumho Ecsta PA51



Description

With its state-of-the-art tread-design and new innovative compound, the Ecsta PA51 is able to deliver the enhanced handling, traction and extended tread-life needed for today’s high performance vehicles while also providing the quiet and comfortable ride that owners expect all year.

  • Circumferential and lateral grooves along with full-depth sipes help to expel water and snow quickly to help improve control, even in inclement weather
  • Variable pitch tread design lowers road harmonics for a quieter, more comfortable ride; especially at high speeds
  • A balanced and wide footprint provides even contact with the road, allowing for longer tread life
  • A strong central rib and rigid outside shoulder give exceptional traction and stability, even in tight curves and corners
  • Confidence-instilling traction comes from its asymmetrical tread-design and full-depth sipes that are able to give superb traction in the snow or rain

I have had these tires for about 7 months now and had no issues. I drove both, city and highway. I felt confident in the wet when we had a lot of rain, they performed great! Amazing tires, especially for the cost.

I've had these tires for two years. Bought them new. Very disappointed with snow traction. They are poor on snow, slush and ice. To my mind these tires are good only for dry conditions.
