Product description & features

The Kumho Ecsta PS71 focuses on wet braking and transverse water movement with their resin compound that has a high grip on damp surfaces. The asymmetric tread pattern has four large longitudinal grooves that help channel water away from the tyre. Cornering is enhanced by the solid blocks on the outer edge of the tread. The 3D Block Design from Kumho allows the tread to remain stable during high speed driving and load.

The casing has been reinforced to support the tread when under load. As a summer tyre, it has been designed to be functional when the temperature is above approximately 7 degrees Celsius. The Ecsta PS71 SUV is a model designed for higher weight vehicles and a construction designed specifically for SUV usage. At Tyres.co.uk, we stock the Kumho Ecsta PS71.

Highlights

  • Wet grip resin compound
  • Four wide water channels
  • Solid outer tread blocks

Tyre review for Kumho Ecsta PS71 225/50R17 98Y XL
These tyres have demonstrated great grip in all conditions, even while towing a full car transporter trailer. The road noise is low and tyre wear so far appears to be good. We've got lots of potholes around here, but these tyres have not had any issues with them. Happy with this purchase.

Very good. One tyre does, however, keep losing air.
