Kumho Tire Kumho Ecsta Sport S PS72S 255/40R20 101Y XL High Performance Summer Tire

Kumho Ecsta Sport S PS72S

OVERVIEW

The Kumho Ecsta Sport S PS72S is a high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger cars and SUVs. This model is EV-Ready, meaning these tires are compatible with both electric and traditional vehicles.

The tread design maintains the surface contact at all times. As such, the asymmetric footprint manages to enhance the tire’s steering responsiveness and driving stability. The close road contact greatly improves steering responses and accuracy to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Cornering and braking are effectively upgraded as well. This is achieved with the footprint’s optimized tread elements. As a result, the tire can be easily controlled even at high speeds.

Summer traction is optimized with the tread design and the heat-resistant compound. The optimized tread elements firmly grip the road surface, with better surface contact, while the summer compound prevents heat build-up in warmer temperatures. These elements upgrade the tire’s dry and wet traction. On the other hand, the special grooves help the tire prevent hydroplaning. They eliminate water from the footprint and maintain surface contact.

High driving comfort levels are ensured with this tire. The optimal tread design channels airwaves through the footprint, making sure they do not come into contact with the tread elements. As a result, the tire avoids sound wave formations. The tire prevents sound waves from reaching the passengers and ruining their driving enjoyment. Better comfort levels promote a quiet driving experience.

The Kumho Ecsta Sport S PS72S provides excellent high speed durability. This high speed durability is ensured by combating pressure accumulation. The heat-resistant compound and the optimal tread design significantly reduce the possibility of heat build-up. This greatly eases the pressure off the tire during its performance. The structure does not deform under high speed pressure. Their combination helps to greatly increase the tire’s overall driving safety.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
