Performance tires come in all shapes and sizes, but their common feature is their capability to withstand high speed pressure. They prevent heat build-up and ensure a secure performing capability throughout the year for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Manufacturers combine exceptional speed durability with a safer and more comfortable year round drive to their designs to guarantee a first-rate driving experience.
Priority Tire offers a long line-up of performance passenger tires for sale. One of our best sellers is Kumho’s Ecsta PA31. This model promotes a safer all weather traction, excellent high speed performance, good controllability, a comfortable drive and a lengthened tread life. Kumho offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.

All Weather Performance
All season tires have the advantage on the tire market. Their capability of safely performing in all conditions makes them more desirable for the consumers. They offer a secure all weather traction and ensure year round driving safety.
Kumho combines an all season tire compound with the symmetric directional tread pattern to increase the Ecsta PA31’s all weather traction. The directional tread design with the detailed siping pattern firmly grips the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather conditions and ensures a secure performance even when driving on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. The compound maintains its flexibility all year round and avoids heat build-up to promote a safer drive.
The tread’s wide circumferential grooves help prevent hydroplaning. These wide grooves disperse water and slush from below the tire’s footprint and keep the tire’s road contact in wet and winter weather. This prevents water and slush from cutting off the tire’s contact with the road surface and it maintains the driver’s control over the vehicle at all times, providing a secure all weather performance.
High Speed Handling
For the tire to be able to safely perform at high speeds, it needs to have excellent controllability. A stable tire structure and a quick and precise steering response are a must to guarantee a secure performing capability.
The Ecsta PA31 was designed with a directional tread pattern that maintains its road contact at all times. The better road contact upgrades the model’s steering responsiveness and driving stability even during the tire’s high speed performance. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the model.
The directional design’s shoulder tread blocks manage to increase the cornering and braking capability. The optimal siping detail increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface throughout the tire’s performance and maintains a firm grip. In this manner, the model offers a shortened braking distance and a secure cornering capability.
The even pressure distribution of the directional tread design actively resists heat build-up along the tread area. This enables the tire to perform at its best high speed ability as the driving pressure does not deform the tread elements and the tire’s optimized shape.
Lengthened Tread Life
A lengthened tread life is always one of the most sought after features of a tire. The longer their tread lasts the longer the tire can be used, which makes it more cost efficient.
Kumho offers a 50,000 mile warranty with the Ecsta PA31. This mileage is achieved thanks to the directional tread design. The tire’s tread pattern upgrades its road contact and optimizes the pressure distribution along the tread area. The equally circulated forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoid irregular tread wear formations, which guarantees an extended tread life and tire usability.
Comfortable Experience
Road disturbances can easily ruin the driving enjoyment. They cause discomfort in the vehicle’s cabin while the tires are in motion. Manufacturers strive to design and produce models that are capable of reducing the road noise levels to ensure a comfortable drive.
The Ecsta PA31 was made with a directional tread design which features a variable pitch sequence. This manages to decrease the road and tread pattern noise heard in the vehicle’s cabin. The variable pitch creates a sound frequency that negates the road noise levels heard while the tires are in motion. In this manner, the tire cancels out the road and tread pattern noise before they reach the vehicle’s cabin and disturb the driving comfort. This promotes a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
