Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum 205/60R16 96V XL Performance a/s All Season Tire

Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum

OVERVIEW

The Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum is a high performance, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. Kumho offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.

The tire ensures excellent all weather traction. The asymmetric tread design, with the detailed siping pattern, and the all season compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The asymmetric tread’s siping detail and stress relief dimples provide a larger number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface throughout the year, including on snow-covered road surfaces. The compound keeps the tire pliable in various temperatures with the special rubber materials. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint. This combination guarantees a safer year round performing capability.

The model improves the high speed controllability with the ideal tread design. The asymmetric tread’s center ribs increase the steering responsiveness and the driving stability by improving their contact with the road surface. The steering, in this manner, becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The tread design’s waffle-like siping detail upgrades the braking capability. These sipes create friction between the road surface and the tire at the moment of braking, which decreases the model’s braking distance. The asymmetric tread and the reinforced internal construction ensure a secure high speed performing ability as they maintain the ideal tire shape and road contact under the high speed driving pressure affecting the model.

The Ecsta LX Platinum guarantees a comfortable drive. The internal structure features a jointless nylon cap construction which helps the tire keep its ideal shape and close road contact throughout its performance. As a result, the tire is able to absorb the shock of driving while the vehicle is in motion. This significantly decreases the road vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin by the passengers and the tire is able to ensure an enjoyable driving experience.

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.
