Kumho's family of Ecsta (x' ta) performance tires is
designed to enhance every vehicle's capabilities. The Ecsta MX XRP is
Kumho's Max Performance Summer self-supporting run-flat tire developed
to provide temporary continuing mobility exclusively for the drivers of
C-5 Corvettes in the case of complete air loss due to a puncture. The
Ecsta MX XRP is designed to deliver Kumho's ultimate level of "dry" road
performance while maintaining good wet traction. The Ecsta MX XRP is not
intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on
ice.
The Ecsta MX XRP molds an advanced silica tread rubber compound into a directional tread pattern that features massive, stable blocks to increase cornering traction and steering response, while four large circumferential and multiple directionally aligned lateral grooves resist hydroplaning and enhance wet traction. Internally, the two wide steel belts are reinforced by spirally wound nylon cap plies to provide excellent strength, uniform ride quality, and Y-speed rated capability while the sidewalls are tuned to resist lateral deflection and to provide handling control and feedback. |
