  • 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

The Kumho WinterCraft WP52 is a winter passenger car tyre designed primarily for draining water and slush when driving in winter conditions. It has a V-shape directional tread and maintains a low temperature solid construction. Its design is made to remove water and slush from the tread contacting the road. It also has 3D slits in the tread blocks to enhance performance in snowy conditions with a snow barrier edge and the blocks aid braking and turning.

The WP52 is an improved version of the WP51 in Kumho’s winter tyre range. It has different tread patterns and features the 3PMSF designation for the required snow grip standard. It also contains the M+S designation on the sidewall. Some specifications also use Reinforced XL construction for the winter tyre range for cars that require the higher-load marking. Tyres.co.uk has stock of Kumho WinterCraft WP52.

Tyre review for Kumho WP52 235/65R17 108V XL
As winter tyres on an additional set of wheels, these were utilised from mid-November to March. They show good performance in winter conditions and to my surprise, they were more fuel efficient than my summer Goodyears. Just put them back on for the winter. Judging by the tread wear, they should be good for about three more winters or approximately 30,000 miles.
