WinterCraft WP51 Tyres description & features

The Kumho WinterCraft WP51 tyre is a winter tyre designed for traction on snow and wet ice roads. It has a V-shaped directional tread which improves traction and channels away slush and water quickly. Closely placed, zig-zag winter sipe tread design increases traction in biting edge traction while the winter tread compound increases flexibility in low temperatures.

These WP51 tyres have the M+S and 3PMSF marking on their sidewalls. The 3PMSF marking on these tyres is to show that the tyre meets the minimum requirements necessary for certification of winter tyres with regards to snow grip. The winter tread design with high surface area of sipes is specifically designed for cold and wet conditions where temperatures are below 7 degrees Celsius. These Kumho WinterCraft WP51 tyres can be purchased at Tyres.co.uk.

  • V-shaped directional tread pattern

Things are looking good so far. I haven't driven too many miles with these tyres yet and I haven't faced any snow either, but I'm really happy with how they coped with the steering on the flooded roads.

Tyre review for Kumho WinterCraft WP51 175/65R14
Over several days, there was heavy snowfall, but I was still able to drive both myself and my daughter, who is a nurse, to and from work while her car was having trouble getting traction. These tyres are amazing.

Tyre review for Kumho WinterCraft WP51 215/60R16
Provide good grip in cold weather and excellent performance on wet surfaces. In cold weather driving improves confidence. There seems to be a slight increase in fuel consumption. Swapping tyres has not changed the amount of noise from the tyres.

I'm content with my tyres for the weather conditions, and because I have winter tyres on my car, I feel more secure when it comes to safety. It's been interesting as someone from South Africa to have to change tyres according to the seasons.

Tyre review for Kumho WinterCraft WP51 165/70R14
When it comes to dry conditions and temperatures above 10°C, these budget winter tyres do not provide the same level of stability that summer or all-season tyres do. They are good for city driving and for straight driving on motorways, but not for high-speed cornering. They do a good job at dealing with standing water, and driving slowly in the rain is more comfortable. They're also noticeably more grippy on chilly mornings and frosty weather as opposed to summer tyres. I've yet to test them in the snow, but considering how well they perform in cold and wet conditions, I believe they would also do well in snowy conditions. I might consider buying high-end winter tyres in case of comfort preferences during autumn and winter days.
