Kumho Spare T131 FEATURES AND BENEFITS Compact spare tire All season traction Optimized handling OVERVIEW The Kumho Spare T131 is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This is a compact spare tire. In other words, it is a smaller tire used as a replacement tire. Due to its smaller physical shape, it takes up less space in the vehicles trunk, making it space-efficient. However, the smaller size and lightweight construction put performing restrictions on the tire. It must be inflated at 60 psi throughout its performance, and even then, it cannot be driven faster than 50 mph. Due to this, this compact spare tire does not offer the same performance as a full-sized tire would. Yet it enables a short drive, so the vehicle and its passengers will not be stranded on the side of the road. The symmetric tread design and all season compound significantly enhance exceptional all season traction. This is achieved with road grip provided in dry, wet, and light winter conditions. As a result, the sipe and groove placement increases the grip on the road surface by providing the necessary biting edges. The compound keeps the rubber flexibility at various temperatures. Some hydroplaning resistance is offered, but careful driving in wet conditions is still encouraged. Furthermore, the tire will not provide good traction in harsh winter situations. The Spare T131 offers good controllability. The continuous center rib ensures the tires consistent surface contact, which boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. However, due to its lightweight structure, the tire is unable to offer more than the necessary performance. Its smaller size makes it adequate for short-term use, but anything more than that is above its capabilities. This is a bias ply or diagonal tire. Due to the tires internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller diagonal tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tires non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tires ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability. 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.
