Review on Kumho Ecsta PS31 195/50 R15 82V summer by Adam Nowak ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

I’ll make a reservation right away that we are talking about the size 235/50 R 17 101 W. Why focus on dimensions and indices? Yes, because the same tire of the same model will have different characteristics depending on the dimension, load index and speed, and the car on which you ride this tire. It's strange that people leaving reviews do not understand this. And stupidly, according to the model, without even indicating the size, reviews are fucked up . about handling . rigidity . comfort and so on. It is also strange that the reviewer also does not bother to degrade not only the model, but also the other specified characteristics on the sidewall?))))) On the example of this tire, I can say that the tire in the 17th radius with indices 94 and 101 differ cardinally ! ! and behave differently. From that, there are such conflicting opinions on all tires of the same model. The difference in load and speed indices affects the comfort, handling and other subjective and objective feelings of the driver and the car. Always think and indicate what you are using this or that tire in what size and indexes. And in my case, 235 / 50 R 17 101 W on Teana turned out to be crap. Rigid, very sensitive to the track, but it must be admitted that the grip is excellent in braking and long turns. I know that the same model in size 215/55 r17 94 V behaves like soft, comfortable, quiet, rolling, and so on . on the same car. So choose what you need, following the elementary laws of physics and common sense))) And the overall rating of the tire is 4.5! One hell. Deserved!

Pros
  • Execution . Braking. Turns. Appearance.
Cons
  • Rutting. Controllability. Dubina with index 101.
