Product description & features
The Kumho PS71 is a summer ultra high performance tyre built for drivers of sporty hatchbacks, saloons and coupes who want sharper handling without sacrificing everyday usability. Designed for UK roads in warmer conditions, it focuses on precise steering response, strong braking and stable cornering, while remaining composed on longer motorway runs.
Its asymmetric tread pattern uses a more rigid outer shoulder to support the tyre during fast direction changes, helping the car feel planted through bends. A stable centre area improves straight-line tracking, while carefully shaped tread blocks maintain an even contact patch for consistent grip as speeds rise.
In wet weather, wide circumferential grooves and smaller lateral channels work together to clear surface water quickly, reducing the risk of aquaplaning and supporting reliable wet braking. Fine tread detailing helps the compound key into the road surface, and the silica-rich blend is tuned to balance wet traction with sensible wear and efficiency for a performance-focused tyre.
It’s offered in many sizes, typically from 16 to 20 inch rims, and there is also an SUV-specific version for heavier vehicles that need extra load capability. Kumho PS71 tyres are available to buy online in all available sizes on Tyres.co.uk, with the option to choose fitting at a nearby garage of your choice or convenient delivery.
