The Kumho KW 7400 is a studded winter tire for passenger cars from the well-known Korean company "Kumho", which, over more than fifty years on the market, has firmly occupied the niche of a manufacturer that produces tires designed for high-speed driving. This tire also has a speed index T, indicating that on a difficult winter road, it can accelerate up to 190 kilometers per hour.
This tire is distinguished by high performance on any winter road. Thanks to advanced developments and the use of the latest technology in the production of the tire, it was possible to create a truly high-quality product that will delight lovers of fast winter driving.
The tread of this tire, although it does not have studs, but its structure allows it to grip the road surface just as effectively. The directed design of the tread pattern is responsible for this parameter, firstly. Secondly, the numerous lamellas on the tire are responsible for the excellent coupling qualities. They also minimize the braking distance, contribute to better acceleration on a slippery road, and provide good traction when moving.
The composition of the rubber mixture, which the tire's tread is made of, is unique. It includes silica, which does not freeze at very low temperatures, making it ideal for Russian conditions. In addition, silica gives the tire elasticity, which guarantees even better grip with the road surface, as well as an even distribution of pressure across the entire tread area, which guarantees a longer service life of the tire.
The Kumho KW7400 tire is also economical: due to the low rolling resistance, which is ensured by the optimized structure of the tire, there is less fuel consumption.
The central block of the tire, consisting of closely spaced trapezoidal blocks, provides high directional stability when driving on any road - be it a snowy track or ice. And four deep ring-shaped longitudinal grooves, combined with numerous transverse cuts, contribute to the high-quality drainage of water from the contact patch with the road and thereby eliminate the risk of aquaplaning.
Distinctive features of the Kumho KW7400 tire
- Kumho KW 7400 is a studded winter tire for passenger cars with a speed index T (maximum acceleration - up to 190 km/h).
- The directed design of the tread pattern provides excellent coupling properties on any road.
- The lamella system also improves coupling, provides stability when driving, and minimizes the braking distance.
- The original composition of the rubber mixture includes silica, which provides the tire with high thermal stability, maintaining the elasticity of the tire in severe frosts.
- The even distribution of pressure across the entire contact area with the road guarantees the wear resistance of the tire.
- The economy of the tire: reduced rolling resistance contributes to fuel savings of up to five percent.
- Four deep ring-shaped longitudinal grooves and numerous transverse cuts effectively drain moisture from the contact area with the road surface.
