5/5

Kumho Ecsta HS51

One tyre is in good condition, but we had to change the other because of a puncture.

4/5

Kumho Ecsta HS51

Driving in cold and wet conditions is far better than the previous Toyo TR1 model which always felt like it was going to cause a crash.

5/5

Kumho Ecsta HS51

Performs exceptionally well in snow and other weather conditions. Great for off road trips to the stables, excellent grip on muddy surfaces.

3/5

Kumho Ecsta HS51

The original old tyres had better fuel efficiency, performing 4-5 mpg better on long trips.

5/5

Kumho Ecsta HS51

That is why I have chosen this brand because these specific tyres have an exceptional performance in all types of weather, including snowy conditions.

Kumho Ecsta HS51

It took a little while to get used to the tendency to drive straight, unlike my previous tyres. In terms of performance, they are brilliant in heavy rain and still maintain a good grip. As for the wear and tear, they are showing even wear so they should last a while.

5/5

Kumho Ecsta HS51

The tyres are performing very well so far. I switched from Goodyear tyres and was concerned that they would not perform as well, and to my surprise they are performing excellently with both grip and handling in all weather conditions. I would definitely buy these tyres again.

Overall, I'm really pleased with all of them - they're quiet, have great grip, and really good in the wet and even handling rough roads really well.

205/50 R15 Tyre Measurements

205/50 R15 sizes are the original front tyre sizes on early Honda NSX vehicles which have wider rear tyres. 205 denotes the width in mm. 50 is the aspect ratio, with the sidewall height being 50% of 205mm, thus 102mm. R15 indicates it is a radial tyre on a 15-inch rim, thus giving the NSX an overall diameter of 586mm. The NSX employs that 102mm sidewall to control tyre flex while cornering.
