Kumho Releases New Crugen HT51 Commercial All-Season Tire

The Crugen HT51's five-rib tread design features a stiff center block design for improved straight-line stability and enhanced dry traction, Kumho says.

Kumho Tire has launched the Crugen HT51 commercial highway all-season product line nationwide.

The Crugen HT51’s five-rib tread design features a stiff center block design for improved straight-line stability and enhanced dry traction, Kumho says. Its four wide, circumferential grooves increase hydroplaning resistance by creating a vortex effect, while the 3-D zigzag sipes provide biting edges for augmented traction and stability on snow-covered roads. The two wide steel belts are reinforced by two spirally wrapped nylon cord caps that enhance the tire’s handle, durability, and stability at highway speeds, the company says.

The Crugen HT51 commercial highway A/S is currently available in four sizes:

  • LT185/60R15C
  • LT215/85R16C
  • LT225/75R16C
  • LT235/65R16C
