4.7/5
(6 reviews)
  • Tick Icon Car
    Car tyre:

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

  • Tick Icon Reinforced (XL)
    Extra Load or Reinforced tyres:

    A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.

  • Tick Icon Winter
    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

Kumho’s WinterCraft WP72 has been designed for advanced winter conditions to deliver ultra high performance. This tyre has been created for brake performance on cold wet roads and traction in wet slush and light snow. WinterCraft WP72 has a silica compound that remains flexible at low temperatures. Thanks to the deep grooves that run around the tyre and the 3D sipe technology (which add biting edges onto slippery surfaces) the tread is able to maintain contact with the road.

Kumho’s ultra high performance winter range has the WP72 replacing the WP71. Reinforced XL construction is available for vehicles that require extra load. The 3PMSF mark is also found on the sidewall and denotes the snow grip performance required by law for winter tyres in certain European countries. At Tyres.co.uk we supply the Kumho WinterCraft WP72 in both standard and reinforced XL construction.

Highlights

  • Silica compound for low temperatures
  • Deep grooves for wet conditions
  • Reinforced XL construction available

Tyre review for Kumho WinterCraft WP72 255/35R21 98W XL
I'm pleased with their performance in the rain, and I feel really confident driving through actual sheets of rain. The ride is smoother than I expected, and there are no bumps even at higher speeds. I would recommend them.
