satisfactory
Ranked #17 of 19
Finishing 17th out of 19 competitors, the Kumho WinterCraft WP52 received a final rating of 'Satisfactory'. The tyre stood out for its dynamic dry handling, high mileage, and good economic value. These strengths were complemented by its exceptional performance in disciplines such as dry braking and dry handling, where it demonstrated leading capabilities. Additionally, its balance of performance and cost earned it high marks for price/value. However, its performance was not without drawbacks. It was critiqued for having limited grip levels on wet surfaces, displaying significant understeering characteristics during wet handling, and offering low aquaplaning reserves. Despite these challenges, its positives in dry conditions and overall value proposition held considerable merit.
