Kumho Tires Ecsta STX KL12 275/45R20 106W BSW

Performance tires seem to be developed solely for the passenger vehicle market and directed at high-performance sedans and sports cars. What about the SUV and light truck crew? Kumho's response to this lack of attention was the development of the Ecsta STX KL12. A high-performance, light truck tire, the Ecsta STX KL12 offers all-season performance. The tire traction is superb in both wet and dry conditions. This performance is partly because of the two wide circumferential grooves and the high-angled lateral grooves that cross it. These advancements help give the tire better contact with the road surface while increasing water removal from the front of the tire. Well-designed shoulder blocks give excellent handling on corners. Many drivers mention how fun the tire is to use on an SUV, even at high speeds. The wide cross-section of the tire helps with the cornering as well as the average driving performance. The tire is stable and responsive, even at higher speeds. Kumho's jointless construction improves the tire's tread life immensely, allowing for longer life from the tire. Unfortunately, the tire sacrifices low noise for these benefits. If you want a high-performance tire designed specifically for SUVs and light trucks, but don't mind a bit of noise from the tread, give the Ecsta STX KL12 a try. You might be pleasantly surprised.
