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 255/40R21 102Y XL
They are not very good in the rain, stopping is difficult, and steering feedback is vague. The ride is on the rough side and you hear the road quite a bit. They wear out quicker and aren't as tough as I expected. They also use more fuel because of the higher rolling resistance.

Tyre review for Kumho Ecsta PS71 255/40R21 102Y XL
Recently, we had quite a lot of snow, but our Corsa coped with it no problem at all. Our neighbours with their brand new SUV, on the other hand, had to sit there struggling with their wheels just spinning and no grip.

Within the first two weeks, one tyre had a puncture and was unable to be repaired. The other tyre is still in good condition.
