    Car tyre:

    Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.

    Winter tyres:

    Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.

Product description & features

The Kumho WinterCraft WP71 excels at providing performance under cold and icy conditions. Thanks to its directional tread design and specialised silica compound, the WP71 maintains flexibility at lower temperatures. Water and slush are channeled away from the centre of the tread and across the surface thanks to deep and wide grooves that run the circumference of the tyre. 3D fine slits create additional bite in the tread blocks while also reinforcing the blocks when snow is present on the roadway.

The speed rating for the outer edge of the tyre is high enough to be used safely on the motorway. The WP71 tyre is available in a reinforced version for vehicles that have a higher load specification. Tyres.co.uk has the Kumho WinterCraft WP71 available for order with the reinforced XL versions in stock.

Highlights

  • Directional tread design
  • Silica compound for cold temperatures
  • Deep grooves clear water and slush
  • Reinforced versions for higher loads

Tyre review for Kumho WinterCraft WP71 205/45R17 84V
So far the tyres seem good, but without any real winter conditions, I can't fully evaluate them. My car has difficulties during winter, which is the reason I changed to winter tyres, and I'm expecting these to do well when the time comes.

Tyre review for Kumho WinterCraft WP71 205/45R17 84V
This is amazing for bad weather. Normally, I'd be stuck at home with a rear wheel drive car.
