The Korean company "Kumho" ("Kumho"), renowned for its developments in the field of automotive tires for sports cars, presents the winter tire Ice Power KW21. In its creation, the developers took into account all the difficulties that may arise for the driver when moving on a winter road, and tried to prevent possible problems. Advanced technologies helped them implement their intentions, the experience of using which made the tires from this Korean manufacturer one of the best in the world.
This non-studded tire provides the vehicle with excellent handling characteristics, demonstrated on any winter surface, be it compacted snow or even ice. In this regard, an important characteristic is the uniform distribution of pressure over the entire area of the tread, which is ensured by its multi-row structure. This provides excellent manageability on any road.
The tires in the Kumho Ice Power KW21 have been replaced by a system of densely arranged lamellas that contribute to traction on a slippery surface, as well as quiet operation of the tire.
The design of the Kumho Ice Power KW21 tread pattern has an asymmetric character, which allows the tire to effectively grip the road surface. It provides the tire with excellent braking and acceleration properties. To achieve maximum traction with the track, the tire has wide grooves with sharp edges that grip the road and also prevent snow from sticking. Special V-shaped grooves guarantee stability when cornering.
In addition, the tire has low rolling resistance, which is achieved due to the unique composition of the rubber mixture that makes up the tread. This means that a car "shod" in these tires has excellent handling characteristics and also saves fuel when driving. The tread composition also includes silica, which prevents the tire from freezing at low temperatures and also contributes to the elasticity of the tire and, as a result, its lower wear. The unique, specially developed, balanced composition of the rubber mixture also contributes to acoustic comfort when driving: the tire is not characterized by high noise generation. Finally, the latest technologies have made it possible to enhance the tire's damping and reduce vibration when driving at high speeds, which is another significant advantage of the Ice Power KW21.
Another positive characteristic of the Kumho Ice Power KW21 tire is the high-quality water drainage, which is provided by a system of wide transverse and longitudinal channels. Thanks to them, moisture is quickly and efficiently removed from the contact patch with the road surface, and the risk of aquaplaning on a wet track is practically reduced to zero.
In general, this tire will delight fans of fairly fast driving in the winter season and provide comfort and safety when driving in a high-speed style.
Key Features of Kumho Ice Power KW21
- Kumho Ice Power KW21 is a winter non-studded tire for passenger cars.
- The microporous rubber compound allows the tire to be in no way inferior to its studded counterparts.
- A durable layer of the tire's side part prevents serious mechanical damage.
- The uniform distribution of pressure over the entire area of the tread guarantees less wear on the tire.
- The system of densely arranged lamellas provides good traction characteristics, as well as a high level of acoustic comfort when driving.
- The silica in the tread composition allows it to not freeze in severe frost and maintain its elasticity, which, once again, increases the service life of the tire.
- This tire is considered environmentally friendly: low rolling resistance contributes to fuel savings of up to five percent.
- Improved damping has allowed for the elimination of vibration that could occur when driving at high speeds.
- Special V-shaped grooves guarantee stability when cornering.
- The risk of aquaplaning on a wet road is excluded due to the system of wide transverse and longitudinal channels.
- Wide grooves with sharp edges grip the road and fight against snow sticking to the tread.
