Summer tire Kumho KR26 is specially designed for use on various models of passenger cars. This manufacturer has an excellent reputation and is renowned for its technological achievements in the tire industry. In the development of this model, a huge number of new technological solutions and the best modern materials were used. Thanks to this, it was possible to achieve excellent operational characteristics in any weather conditions.
Unique rubber compound
The use of an increased amount of silica provided excellent elasticity of the tread. Due to this, the traction characteristics with a wet road surface have increased, and the recovery properties of the tread have accelerated. The Kumho Sense KR26 tire "swallows" all the irregularities of the road surface, making the ride as comfortable and safe as possible. To increase the mileage, silicon was used, which increased the wear-resistant qualities of the rubber. The new rubber compound made it possible to reduce rolling resistance, which reduced fuel consumption during movement and reduced the emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere.
Optimized drainage system
To increase stability when driving on a wet surface, a new optimized water drainage system was used. It consists of three large channels and a large number of small notches and lamellae. Deep channels quickly remove water from the contact zone, small notches and lamellae reduce noise when driving and create a peculiar effect of "sticking" to the wet road surface.
Updated shoulder zone design
To increase stability during turns and prevent lateral damage, a reinforced side zone was used. It consists of large blocks with sharp edges, which increase stability during any maneuvers. Also, in the side zone, there is a special rubber ring that increases protection against damage.
Even at high speeds, the tire is characterized by confident handling and excellent stability. And thorough quality control makes it possible to prevent the release of defective products to the consumer.
