KUMHO Tyres

Kumho tyres are widely considered a mid-range tyre brand. Kumho tyres generally cost slightly more than budget tyres, but they provide greater quality and durability while still being more affordable than premium tyres.

Yes. Kumho's Road Venture tyres are built for off-road use. They include features such as wider blocks and deeper tread patterns. These help clear mud and provide traction on uneven ground. They're used by drivers who regularly cover rural or unpaved routes, as well as those who tow or use their vehicles for mixed terrain.

Yes. Most Kumho tyres perform well in UK conditions. Many have good water drainage designs to limit aquaplaning and maintain braking distance in the rain. The brand's all-season options work well throughout the year, while winter tyres like the WP52 are designed for freezing temperatures and slush. These features make Kumho a dependable option during typical British weather changes.

Several Kumho models are designed to lower rolling resistance. This means the tyres require less energy to keep moving, which can help reduce fuel consumption. The Ecowing ES31 is a good example. It uses a silica-rich compound that keeps the tyre firm but flexible, allowing it to move smoothly and lose less energy. These small gains can make a noticeable difference for high-mileage drivers.

Tyre life depends on how and where you drive, but Kumho tyres are built to last. They're often chosen by drivers who want durability without the higher cost of premium brands. Routine checks, correct inflation and regular rotation can help extend the lifespan of your tyres. Most Kumho models will give good mileage before reaching the legal wear limit.
