Kumho WinterCraft WP52 is a mid-range tyre designed to meet the needs of passenger car drivers during the demanding winter season. Every element of the model has been tuned for driving on snowy or wet surfaces, the biggest safety risk for travellers this season.

The tyre's modern directional tread features a number of important solutions to increase driving confidence and stability on slippery surfaces:

• The extended shape of the tyre footprint improves grip on all typical winter surfaces.

  
  

• Wide yet angled transverse grooves reduce the risk of uncontrolled skidding by efficiently evacuating water that accumulates under the tyre.

  
  

• Densely spaced self-locking 3D sipes increase the tyres' traction on snow and help optimise braking distances.

  
  

• Advanced rubber compound with winter properties does not stiffen in cold weather.

Drivers travelling long distances will also appreciate the model's noise reduction system. Special pyramids placed on the side wall absorb most of the noise, providing a better driving experience and improved acoustic comfort in the car.
