Kumho Ecsta MX KU15

The Korean company Kumho, one of the recognized world leaders in the production of sports tires for sports cars, presents the Ecsta MX KU15 tire. In its development, the most advanced technologies and experience in the production of racing tires were used, which made it possible to create this high-quality tire that will undoubtedly please lovers of aggressive driving, sharp turns at high speeds, and at the same time, advocates of safety while driving.
This model belongs to the "Ultra High Performance" class.

The tread pattern design of this tire is directional, with large blocks, which provides good traction with the road surface, a short braking distance, high acceleration characteristics, stability, and confident entry into turns. Like many other models in this line, the Kumho Ecsta MX KU-15 tire, in addition to a unique rubber compound with silica that increases traction on wet roads, also contains silicon, which gives confidence in wet and dry traction and increases the tire's wear resistance.

Another similarity is the use of ESCOT technology, which involves a modern method of contour optimization - the lateral surface of the tire is seamless, which guarantees the absence of vibration when moving at high speeds. The improved sidewall design also provides good shock absorption and pressure distribution throughout the tire's contact zone with the road surface. The rigid sidewalls also provide high directional stability and increase safety when passing turns at high speeds. The stability on the road is also contributed by two layers of seamless nylon in the breaker composition.

The Kumho Ecsta MX KU15 tire also has good characteristics when driving on wet roads. Firstly, the two large central channels effectively remove the contact patch zone. Also, the occurrence of aquaplaning on wet roads is prevented by the tread pattern itself: its direction changes, and the numerous grooves lead to the two aforementioned large central channels, so that water is not retained in the shoulder zones of the tire, but is immediately transferred to the central one, from where it is immediately removed.

The tread pattern also contributes to a low level of noise generation.

Finally, another distinguishing feature is its resistance to damage.

Distinctive features of Kumho Ecsta MX KU15
