Product description

  • Winter tyre for city and compact cars.
  • Enhanced grip and traction in snow.
  • Better handling in wet weather.

Winter tyre designed for city and compact cars, the Kumho WInterCraft WP51 offers better wet and snow performance than its predecessor.

Winter. The optimised layout of 3D sipes provides more grip and traction in wet and snowy conditions. Honeycomb shaped sipes lock tread blocks together to ensure stable handling.

Handling. The directional tread with wide lateral grooves provide efficient water drainage. The centre part designed to stiffen the tread improves tyre performance on dry roads.

What is the rezulteo score?

The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
