Tyre reviews Kumho Wintercraft WP51 28

On ice, very poor road grip.

Good traction on snowy roads, a bit noisy, and the car starts to steer at speeds over 75 km/h on the highway. In general, this is a tire more for the city.

We've been driving on the tires for three weeks, and so far our impressions are good, though we haven't yet had a chance to test them in ice and snow, but they hold the road well in wet conditions and are quiet, and everything is okay even with me being a very demanding driver. Yuri.

Quite acceptable tires for winter in central Russia...I took them for Camry, I was afraid that China, even under the Kumho license, would not meet expectations...but no, for their price, they are great...good, decent traction...in frosts below -15 becomes a bit noisy, but when driving and warming up, the noise becomes acceptable. In snowy slush, it pulled out with wheel spinning, but without any particular problems...on bare ice, the car is still slightly skidding, but I think any other tire would also skid...moderate city snowdrifts on uncleared streets pass with flying colors, if the snowdrifts are large enough, then you'll need studded tires...in general, a solid 4+...as for wear resistance, I have nothing to say yet - it's my first winter driving them

It grips very well in the snow, fairly well in the snow slush. On ice it's nothing, as you'd expect from an Euro-Lip. On asphalt on high profile, wild steering and a tendency to skid.

Picked up today. From the time of payment delivery from Moscow took about 6 days. The tire passed the balancing test perfectly (max 30 g on the wheel) Checked immediately on the plowed snow holds tightly and doesn't slide. It handles quite well too. Very soft and quiet. I hope the further operation won't spoil the first impression.

Normal tires. We have a mild winter in Kaliningrad, so I may never know how they behave at -15, but at "near zero" temperatures everything is fine. They handle asphalt (both dry and wet) and cobblestone well. There are no hellish noises at 120 km/h, everything is usual.

Normal tires for normal money (at least at the time of the initial purchase in 2021). The only drawback is that I've already blown out 2 tires (sidewall cuts due to potholes) - maybe it's the tires, maybe it's the low profile.

I put it on a small car, a normal tire with predictable behavior, 90% of the time it is used in the city. You need to take care of the sidewalls - they are soft, on one wheel I damaged it by rubbing the sidewall against a broken piece of asphalt in a pothole, it rubbed without a blow.

Normal mid-range tires. I've never used premium tire brands, but compared to Maxxis and Cordiant, they're better.
