OVERVIEW
The Kpatos FM518 H/T is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles. This model has some highway terrain, SUV sizes available as well. It also has high performance sizes.
The asymmetric tread pattern and the close road contact offer great controllability. These elements increase steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering response time is faster and more precise to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it. The wide shoulder blocks utilize the sipping detail, which strongly grips the road with extra biting edges. This upgrades the cornering ability. As a result, the driver has full control over the vehicle, providing a safe driving experience.
The model promotes excellent year-round performance. The asymmetric tread design and the all season compound improve dry, wet, and winter weather traction. In this manner, the all season compound keeps the rubber flexible in summer and winter temperatures, while the special tread design keeps the road contact at all times. On the other hand, wide circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning. They eliminate water and slush from the footprint, offering a safe driving experience throughout the year.
The Kpatos FM518 H/T boosts driving comfort levels. The asymmetric tread design and its close road contact decrease road and tread noise levels heard by the passengers. This tread pattern creates a sound-canceling frequency that negates road noise before it can be heard while the tires are in motion. As road and tread noise cannot ruin the passengers' enjoyment, it guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
