Certain individuals enjoy taking their vehicles out on paved steets and highways and need a dependable performance-oriented tire that can be used year-round. Fortunately, the Kumho Ecsta STX KL12 tires offer the same with a combination of advanced tire engineering and the directional tread pattern that ensure solid performance and smooth rides. The tire is suitable for use on pickup trucks, SUVs, and CUVs, and features large and stable tread blocks, which work together with the directional pattern to ensure sporty handling and quick response. While the nylon bead reinforcements and two polyester body plies in the tire’s sidewall enhance steering with ride quality, the rim protectors prevent damage to the tire sidewall during spirited drives. For a lower road noise and quieter cabin, the STX KL12 utilizes new-gen variable pitch tread blocks. Additionally, the high-angle lateral grooves force water out of the footprint to prevent hydroplaning. This UHP all-season tire from Kumho is suitable for use on vehicles like the Hyundai Kona, Nissan Rogue Sport, Toyota Tacoma, and various sport trucks.
