Kumho Tires Solus TA31 205/55R17XL 95V XL BSW

Have you ever been driving in a town or a city and realized the kind of wear and tear that happens to your tires? The Solus TA31 from Kumho was built to address the problems of urban driving specifically. It's gotten such a reputation that it's ended up as original equipment on several models of Kia and Hyundai vehicles. The all-season tread compound offers fantastic traction on all dry surfaces. The continuous center rib adds to the tire's stability, ensuring that the driver has complete control over the car's movement. When you hit the highway, the on-center feel of the tire making contact with the ground is one of the best you'll ever get. It's not just a dry-condition tire, however. The Solus TA31 demonstrates above-average wet-traction interaction with surfaces. The four circumferential grooves along with the lateral tread pattern help with water evacuation, reducing the chance of hydroplaning at high speeds. While it can handle a light dusting of snow and ice, this isn't a snow-weather tire by any stretch of the imagination. More substantial snowfall will be a significant challenge for you if you're sporting this tire. Additionally, the tire's tread life is low, meaning replacements are likely to happen often. If you're looking for a reasonable all-weather tire and don't plan to drive in snowy conditions, the Solus TA31 might be worth considering.
