Spare tires are essential for keeping drivers on the road after a flat. The Kumho T121 is a compact, temporary spare tire designed to be smaller and lighter than standard size spares. The T121 enables manufacturers to reduce vehicle weight and increase storage space.

Created specifically for short term use, the Kumho T121 has a shallower tread depth, narrower width, and lighter build compared to regular tires. Such a design provides drivers with a temporary solution to regain mobility after flats due to punctures, road hazards, or blowouts. This ensures they can reach a safe location or repair facility without delays. Its symmetrical tread pattern grants great traction and grip, making sure you will not lose control on the road. The solid center rib boosts stability and handling accuracy in dry and wet conditions. Besides, an open shoulder aspect combats heat buildup and further enhances the self cleaning ability.

Secondly, the grooves of the Kumho T121 expel water from the patch, increasing safety on rainy days. The siping adds extra biting edges that deliver better grip and control. Moreover, the rigid sidewalls offer balance and combat lateral forces, keeping the vehicle stable. With a modern rubber compound, this model promotes longevity by resisting constant wear and tear, making it suitable for multiple uses. Also, its shallow tread depth contributes to lower rolling resistance, which reduces fuel usage. At last, this model is available in sizes with rim diameters between 14" and 17".
