Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Sport

With sport tyres, grip in every situation is what decides — under hard acceleration, under braking, in the dry and in the wet. Kumho PS71 belongs to this group. Stability at higher speeds and precision through corners come on top of that. One thing drivers often underestimate when buying: grip comes from a softer compound, and a softer compound wears faster. Where a standard tyre covers roughly 40,000 km, a sport tyre manages about 20,000 to 30,000 km — and considerably less with a sharper driving style or a heavier, more powerful car.

Renault Laguna 3 · 225/45 R18 · 6 437 km
★★★★☆

<p>malgré une impression qu'ils ne durent pas longtemps, ils ne durent pas moins que mes anciens primacy 4 ou les Bridgestone Potenza Sport que j'ai également monté sur ma voiture. Ceux-ci se comportent extrêmement bien aux limites d'adhérence et mettent en confiance même sous la pluie (jusqu"à mi usure, après ca décroche plus vite). Le rapport qualité prix est incroyable. J'en ai racheté en espérant qu'ils durent plus...</p>

<p>For the price they run premium brands very close, but they wear faster, particularly on a FWD car with lots of torque.</p>

<p>Good Grip in general but I dont push it in a Hybrid Auto, poor wear rate on the front axle, the pair are on 3mm after 15,000mls and about to be replaced. Must be the soft rubber compound used.</p>

<p>I’ve had these on my Jaguar XF for 18 months and 9,000 miles now. I have to say I am very happy with them. Wet and dry grip is on a par with the Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics they replaced, but they are lasting much longer. Still around 4mm on each tyre whereas the Goodyears were almost done by this point. Will buy again.</p>
