Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S PA71
OVERVIEW
The Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S PA71 is a high performance, all season tire made for passenger cars and SUVs. Kumho offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
The tire’s maintained road contact enhances its controllability. The asymmetric tread design and the special silica compound work together to maintain continuous contact with the driving surface. As a result, the tire is able to effectively upgrade steering responsiveness and driving stability. This allows the tire to enhance steering responses and accuracy, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The shoulder block pattern provides additional biting edges, upgrading cornering. The angled grooves create friction when braking, significantly shortening its overall braking distance.
This model offers exceptional driving durability. The tread design and the high speed compound work to minimize the possibility of heat build-up. They prevent heat build-up along the tread area. On the other hand, the structure keeps the ideal tire shape under high speed pressure, which allows the tire to greatly improve the high speed durability. The combination of these elements enables the tire to securely perform at its utmost high speed ability.
Excellent year-round traction is provided with this tire. The ideal tread pattern and the all season compound enhance the tire’s dry, wet, and winter-weather grip. In this manner, the optimized tread design closely follows the road surface at all times, while the all season compound keeps the rubber flexible in changing temperatures. Circumferential grooves effectively eliminate water and slush from the footprint in order to resist hydroplaning.
The Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S PA71 guarantees a quiet drive. The model is able to negate sound waves during the drive. This is achieved with the tread pattern’s variable pitch detail. It generates a special sound frequency that prevents sound waves from disturbing the passengers’ driving enjoyment. As road disturbances do not reach the vehicle’s cabin, the tire promotes high driving comfort levels.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
