The Pattern
WinterCraft WP71

Kumho's performance winter tyre with strong wet braking and dependable snow and slush traction.

The WinterCraft WP71 is Kumho's performance winter tyre for passenger cars, built around a contour design and uniform tread blocks that hold the road steadily through cold-weather cornering. Honeycomb three-dimensional sipes add biting edges that grip well in snow and slush, while independent testing showed notably short wet braking. A moulded rim protector helps guard alloys against kerb damage on everyday winter journeys.

  • Contour design aimed at balanced wet and winter performance
