Consumers have different priorities when replacing their car tyres. Price is always the deciding factor, but while some drivers demand optimal traction, others prefer minimal wear (or tread longevity). More and more, however, are choosing tyres with low rolling resistance, to the benefit of their pockets (fuel economy) and the planet (saving natural resources).
Kumho's new Kumho ECOWING ES31 is designed specifically for such drivers. The minimum level of rolling resistance comes mainly from the rigid central tread strip. It is so efficient that almost all of the 70% of the 38 sizes currently offered carry a relevant B label - far from any standard. Other advantages of the new tire's revolutionary asymmetrical engraving are:
-Four wide water drainage channels for optimum performance on wet roads
-Aerodynamically designed shoulders for improved air resistance featuring innovative heat dissipation slots on the inner side
With dimensions from 155/65R14 to 225/55R17, the ECOWING ES31 can be fitted to a diverse range of small and medium hatchbacks, sedans and station wagons, including such timelessly popular models as the Ford Fiesta and Focus, Volkswagen Polo and Golf, BMW Series 1, 2, 3, and 5, Audi A1, A2, A3, A4 and A6 and Mercedes-Benz A, B and C Class.
