The Kumho Ecsta HS51 is a performance and high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles. The asymmetric tread design and the summer compound enhance the high-heat, dry and wet weather performance. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint in wet conditions.
The tread design and the stronger structure allow the tire to increase the comfort levels. The close road contact enables the tire to absorb the shock of driving, which decreases the road vibrations felt by the passengers. The tread decreases the road noise levels reaching the vehicle’s cabin. This combination guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
The Kumho Ecsta HS51 boosts the controllability as well. The high speed handling and maneuvering are ensured with the optimal tread design. The maintained surface contact allows the tire to improve the steering responsiveness and driving stability, while the compound’s heat resistance enables the tire’s high speed performing power. The shoulder block pattern increases the cornering ability with the use of extra biting edges. The ribbed pattern’s tread block stiffness allows the tire to generate friction at the moment of braking, shortening the braking distance. As a result, the tire promotes secure high speed controllability.
