General opinion
The tread of the tire has blocks of increased rigidity and guarantees excellent running characteristics and lower noise levels. The tread consists of three ribs with slots along the edges and a large number of sipes. This improves the steering and stability of the vehicle at high speeds in all seasons. The shoulder zones of the tire form large blocks with arcuate sipes, providing maneuvering without side skids, as well as braking efficiency.
The tread is designed to provide traction with the road at different speeds, on dry and wet surfaces. To do this, the tread has wide shoulders that hold the car in corners. Shoulder slats provide better traction, reducing the chance of slipping.
New rubber, large drainage grooves in the tread are responsible for the quality of grip on wet, snowy roads and in icy conditions. Water and snow slush are quickly removed from the contact patch, which ensures high resistance to aquaplaning and sliding.
These tires can be used until the first frost. Even on snowy roads, the tires will provide good stability and handling, but are not recommended for use throughout the winter.
The all-season-summer compound is supplemented with adhesive additives and innovative components, due to which the performance properties of the outer tread layer are improved. Kumho Solus TA31 rubber offers maximum resistance to wear, puncture, and can be used over a wide temperature range. Summer tires Kumho Solus TA31 are made of sufficiently soft rubber that does not require warming up to reveal all the performance characteristics.
