"When designing its tyres, Kumho prioritised safety and versatility" said a Kumho spokesperson. "The result is a unique product with broad shoulders for maximum grip and adaptability, and a special tread pattern that speeds the expulsion of dirt and grit. Unlike most such tyres that exhibit quite noisy on-road performance, the sound of those created for the Carlino is minimised by special 3D honeycomb tread blocks."
Kumho's been at the mad-tyres design thing before. Its ultra-low-profile Maxplo tyres won the 'Futuristic' class of the Italian A' Design awards, and the brand has previously picked-up Red Dot design awards too.
