Modern winter tyres are not just designed to perform well in snowy conditions, they must also handle wet and icy roads while maintaining control and stability. All season-tyres have to strike more of a balance – winter tyres are the specialists.

Kumho’s new WinterCraft WP52+ exemplifies this next generation of winter tyre technology and is engineered to deliver exceptional control and stability in the most demanding winter conditions.
