Description

The Kumho Ecsta XS KU36 is a summer tire designed for fast riders who want to push their cars to the limit both on the track and on the road. The manufacturer stands for XS in the title as eXtreme Street. The tire has the highest level of grip on dry surfaces and is absolutely not designed for driving on snow or ice.

The Kumho Ecsta XS KU36 tread is made from a special rubber compound with synthetic rubber added to improve traction.

The asymmetric pattern consists of wide shoulder areas (for better traction and responsiveness in dry cornering) and an annular center rib that helps maintain directional stability at high speed and improves straight-line handling. Two wide center grooves and a network of aggressive sipes enhance wet grip.

The carcass of the tire includes two high-strength steel belts reinforced with helical nylon thread. This innovation improves ride quality and stability at high speeds. The side zones actively resist deflection, which has a positive effect on handling and information content.
