\nThe extra-load, Euro 6 compliant KRS50 regional steer pattern became available in 295\/80 size last year and, according to the man spearheading the company\u2019s CV tyre department, Steve Miller, it is not only set to become the number one option in the sector within which Kumho operates, but is already providing a number of premium equivalents with a degree of healthy competition. The eagerly-awaited 315\/70 version is coming on stream as we write, and there is every reason to believe that will prove just as popular.<\/p>\n
\nMiller is equally enthusiastic about KRS50\u2019s regional drive axle partner, KRD50, which has proved to be a significant improvement over the tried and tested KRD02 pattern it replaced. On average, customers are experiencing a 10-15 percent increase in mileage and improved wear performance characteristics.<\/p>\n
\nRecognising the increasing level of demand for extra-load tyres, Kumho will be producing such versions of both its KLS03 and KXS10 steer patterns in the near future. The KLS03 benefits from dual step groove technology and optimised weight design for fuel efficiency in long haul operations, while the KXS10 multi-performance tyre offers excellent all- season performance across a variety of operational demands with increased mileage and improved handling performance.<\/p>\n
