Product description & features
The Kumho Ecowing ES31 is a car tyre developed to help reduce the fuel consumption of a car.
Kumho have designed the Ecowing ES31 with an eco-friendly philosophy - using eco-compounds in the tyre's makeup.
The tyre features a asymmetric tread pattern, to enhance handling performance in both wet and dry conditions.
An optimal wet performance is achieved through the use of specially designed 4 wide main grooves within the tread, to quickly and efficiently remove surface water from the path of the tyre - also helping in the reduced risk of aquaplaning.
Kumho have also incorporated an aerodynamic shoulder design, for improved air resistance - in turn helping to enhance the tyre's fuel efficient capabilities.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
