Kumho Ecsta V720 ACR Features and Benefits

Firstly, the Kumho Ecsta V720 ACR features a unique asymmetric tread pattern that offers excellent performance in dry conditions. This model meets DOT requirements but is not recommended for driving on wet roads as the risk of aquaplaning is high. The large footprint maximizes surface contact and stability, ensuring responsive braking and acceleration. Moreover, its high grip synthetic resin combined with an ultra fine carbon black tread compound delivers strong gripping power. Also, the 6/32" deep tread maximizes torque and keeps the rolling resistance low, which helps you achieve faster lap times and win more races.
Thanks to Kumho's ESCOT tension control optimization technology, this tire features rigid sidewalls and shoulders, which help to evenly distribute pressure across the footprint. This reduces flexing and keeps the tire cool, ultimately improving durability and performance. In addition, the internal structure with dual steel belts and spirally wound nylon ensures higher strength. This helps the tire resist lateral deflection and deliver crisp handling control at high speeds. Lastly, this model is available in two size configurations. The 295/25R19 size is suitable for the front axle and the 355/30R19 one for the rear axle. This way, you can optimize performance and ensure the best competition results.
