Kumho Tire Solus TA51a: ‘Ride and Drive Testimonial’

Early last year, Kumho Tire released the Solus TA51a, an all-season grand touring tire specifically designed for the North American market for drivers of coupes, sedans, crossovers and SUVs. The Solus TA51a features ribs in the main channel and grooves that break up and dissipate resonant noise for a quieter ride, and the four wide main channel grooves maximize water drainage and reduce hydroplaning in wet conditions. The use of interlocking sipes and chamfered block edges increases tread block rigidity and road contact during braking and cornering, improving handling and stability. Kumho’s TA51a will be available in 82 sizes ranging from 13- to 19-in. fitments and is sold with a 65,000 mileage warranty on sizes with an H-speed rating and above and a 75,000 mileage warranty on T-speed rated sizes.
