Primarily, the Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S PA71 features an asymmetric tread pattern that offers confident traction in wet, dry, and snowy conditions. The center blocks create lots of biting edges with the road, ensuring responsive handling and braking. Moving on, the 3D interlocking sipes further boost gripping power, especially in slippery conditions. This allows for full control and peace of mind when the weather is not on your side. The wide lateral grooves combined with circumferential ones expel water and slush from the footprint, reducing the chances of hydroplaning. Thanks to its reinforced shoulder blocks, this tire provides high stability, even on bumpy road sections. The open shoulders also improve cornering precision, helping you take sharp turns with ease.
Secondly, the Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S PA71 features a durable internal build made of high strength steel belts, making it resilient against deep cuts and punctures. Moreover, the stiff rim flange protects the wheels from lateral impacts, preventing downtime and repairs. By utilizing the K-Noise Defender technology within the lateral groove, the tire disperses airflow to reduce road noise. At last, the new silica rubber compound minimizes wear and enhances grip. The Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S PA71 is available on the US market in a wide range of sizes with rims between 16" and 20". Depending on size, this model can handle speeds of up to 186 mph (Y).
