The Kumho Solus TA11 is a touring all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Kumho offers a 75,000 mile tread wear warranty with this model. The tire’s special double silicone tire compound and its tread pattern with the numerous small sipes promote superb all weather traction. Their combination ensures safer dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The four wide and deep circumferential grooves effectively prevent hydroplaning situations by channeling water and slush away from the tire footprint. The improved hydroplaning resistance and year round traction ensure a safer driving experience. The double silicone tire compound enhances the tire’s tread life and fuel efficiency as well. It lowers the rolling resistance with the boosted road gripping ability. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tires that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. The decreased rolling resistance improves the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, making the tire more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly. The reduced rolling resistance also slows the tread wear rate down by keeping the tire cool under the driving pressure. As heat buildup is prevented, the tire’s tread is even and lasts for a longer period of time. The tread pattern’s continuous center ribs enhance the steering responsiveness and driving stability. They maintain road contact at all times, which stabilizes the tire against the driving pressure and makes the steering responsiveness to the driver’s instructions quick and precise. The better stability and steering allow the tire to securely perform to its utmost capability. The Solus TA11 features the ESCOT Technology that optimizes the tire’s shape, sidewall stiffness and road contact. These elements work together to lower and absorb the shock of driving and the road vibrations created from it. The decreased road vibration levels ensure a comfortable driving experience in all conditions.
