Studded winter

Marshal WinterCraft Ice WI31 is specifically designed for passenger cars who want to be confident in their driving safety and traction. In addition to excellent operationalcharacteristics, these tires have a more than affordable price, which pays off with durability and long service life.

Korean tire manufacturers, when creating this winter tire, used innovative developments that ensured excellent performance in all parameters, confident control and instant response to steering commands.

These winter tires feature an aggressively directional V-shaped tread design that creates a one-piece center rib with exposed blocks. A distinctive feature of this design is the multidirectional drainage slots located at different angles. All of these factors create confident traction on snowy, icy or wet winter roads, while the one-piece center structure guarantees precise directional stability.

1. Honeycomb-shaped walls with multiple sipes improve handling and traction on ice or packed snow.
2. V-shaped "winter" tread pattern provides easy handling and good road holding.
3. Optimized rubber compound gives the tire reliable and stable grip.

Kumho prototype

The Marshal KW31 non-studded winter tires are “cloned” according to Korean-made I’Zen KW31 winter models. This tire has proven itself well in difficult Russian climatic conditions, which indicates its outstanding performance. The applicability of this rubber is quite extensive - it is great for installing almostfor any modern passenger car with a wheel diameter of 14 to 17 inches.

Because this model was originally developed for operation in harsh winter regions, its rubber compound was created taking into account the specifics of use in sub-zero temperatures and on surfaces with low coefficient of adhesion. To achieve these goals, the compound to create rubber has been endowed with improved abrasion resistance and a variety of components that provide the tire with a significant part of the traction on ice and snow.

Features

When creating the Marshal KW31 rubber, the company's specialists used world experience in using a V-shaped tread pattern for winter models.

1. Developed by Kumho engineers, the directional symmetrical pattern provides uncompromising traction on any winter road.
2. Very high stiffness of the center rib gives the tire excellent directional stability and precise responses at the slightest steering movement.
3. Due to the location in the central part of the tread blocks, high traction characteristics are achieved on snow.
4. Two types of sipes provide the rubber with stability during sharp maneuvering and extra grip on ice.
5. Due to the block structure of the tread pattern, it was possible to obtain excellent drainage characteristics.

All season tires

Marshal KL71 Road Venture MT is designed for heavy off-road use and is designed forinstallation on most SUV models.

Wide lateral and longitudinal lateral grooves channel water away from the tire's contact patch, thereby reducing the risk of hydroplaning.

Resistant to cuts and punctures, operation in severe weather conditions is possible thanks to the side lugs on a powerful tread. As a result, these tires perform well on both rough terrain and soft ground.

The tire's tread has a directional pattern for excellent grip on the road.
