Kumho Majesty Solus KU50
Upgrade your daily drive with the Kumho Majesty Solus KU50, a grand touring all-season tire built for comfort, control, and lasting value. A balanced tread profile and an all-season compound provide confident braking and cornering in dry and wet conditions, and optimized pitch sequencing helps keep road noise down for a quieter cabin. Designed for sedans and coupes, the KU50 delivers a confident feel for commuting and weekend trips, without the hassle of swapping between summer and winter tires in moderate climates.
Features and Benefits
The Majesty Solus KU50 is tuned for a quiet, composed ride and predictable handling. Its all-season rubber blend works across a wide temperature range, while circumferential grooves and lateral notches move water away to help resist hydroplaning. Dense siping adds biting edges for wet grip and light snow traction. A stable center rib supports on-center feel and straight-line tracking, so the tire delivers everyday comfort with dependable performance.
Performance in Dry, Wet, and Light Snow
On dry pavement, reinforced ribs and a balanced footprint promote precise steering and even wear. In rain, wide circumferential channels and lateral grooves clear water from the contact patch, supporting confident braking and traction. In cold weather and light snow, the all-season compound and dense siping provide extra bite, but for deep snow or prolonged winter conditions, dedicated winter tires are the better choice. Overall, the KU50 is a well-rounded option for year-round commuting where comfort, stability, and wet-road assurance matter.
Tread Design and Technology
The Majesty Solus KU50 uses a tread layout that balances quiet running with secure road holding. A continuous center rib enhances straight-line stability and steering feel, while tuned shoulder blocks distribute cornering forces to help resist irregular wear. Multiple circumferential grooves work with lateral channels to evacuate water, and fine, multi-angle sipes add bite on slick surfaces without overly softening the blocks. The construction targets a comfortable, composed ride with the durability expected of a grand touring all-season tire.
Sizes and Fitment
The Kumho Majesty Solus KU50 is offered in popular passenger-car sizes, including performance-oriented options such as 225/45R17 91W. Load index and speed ratings vary by size, so match or exceed your vehicle's original equipment specs. Verify the correct size on your door-jamb placard or in the owner's manual, and keep the same size, load, and speed rating on all four corners. If you are upgrading wheels, confirm diameter, width, and offset to maintain clearance, handling, and speedometer accuracy.

Pricing, Value, and Warranty
Pricing varies by size, load index, and speed rating, and seasonal promotions can add extra value when bundled with mounting and balancing.

Proper rotation, alignment, and inflation are essential to preserve coverage and extend tread life.
