Kumho I'Zen KW31

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Winter weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Upgraded load durability

OVERVIEW

The Kumho I'Zen KW31 is a touring, winter tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The model promotes excellent winter traction. The asymmetric tread pattern and the winter compound boost the tire's freezing winter weather performance. In this manner, the asymmetric pattern keeps the road contact on ice- and snow-covered road surfaces. On the other hand, the winter compound keeps the rubber flexible in freezing winter temperatures. As a result, this tread design and winter compound guarantee safe winter traction. At the same time, wide grooves prevent hydroplaning. The grooves eliminate water and slush from the footprint, which does not allow the tire to slip on the surface on wet and snow-covered roads.

The optimal tread pattern and road contact enhance controllability. The asymmetric tread design and its consistent road contact boost steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time is faster and more precise to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. At the same time, the siping detail shortens the braking distance, by creating friction during braking. On the other hand, wide shoulder blocks firmly grip the road surface, increasing cornering and maneuvering. This tread design and road contract guarantee the driver's full control over the vehicle, even during its performance on snow-covered roads.

The Kumho I'Zen KW31 also offers excellent driving durability. The strengthened internal structure and reinforced compound keep the ideal tire shape under driving pressure. The stronger construction does not allow the tire to deform during the performance. On the other hand, the durable rubber compound protects the tire against external damage, such as punctures, cuts, and tearing along the tread area.
