Whether commuting to work on the highway or simply taking a family road trip, drivers of passenger cars need a tire that's able to withstand challenging miles and weather conditions. Fortunately, Kumho designed the KH17 with these drivers in mind as it's non directional tread design allows for strong traction in wet and dry conditions. A silica based tread compound works with three wide grooves in the tread to reduce the risk of hydroplaning by removing water from the tire's contact patch, while the KH17's reinforced blocks improve cornering power and braking stability. Offering drivers a long tread life, the KH17 is used as Original Equipment on the Hyundai Accent, Kia Forte, and Chevrolet Cruze.
