The Crugen HP71 is an all-season tire designed by Kumho for drivers of crossovers, SUVs, and light duty pickup trucks. This tire offers a smooth and comfortable ride, as well as the ability to handle various weather conditions, including light snow. The tread compound of the Crugen HP71 is designed to provide a quiet and comfortable ride. It features Kumho's Variable Pitch Technology, which helps reduce noise while driving. The tire also has a symmetrical five rib design, which allows for easy rotation patterns to ensure even wear and increase longevity. In terms of performance, the Crugen HP71 has a rigid center rib that improves on-center feel and enhances handling and steering response. The strong shoulders of the tire further contribute to its stability and help prevent irregular wear. To ensure safety in wet conditions, the tire is equipped with notches in the ribs, wide grooves in the shoulders, and four circumferential grooves to effectively evacuate water from the contact patch and minimize the risk of hydroplaning. Additionally, the sipes and independent tread blocks of the tire create biting edges that provide traction on slippery surfaces. Internally, the Crugen HP71 is built with a two-ply polyester cord body, which enhances the ride quality and increases the tire's strength. The tire also features two wide steel belts on top of the casing, reinforced by two spirally wrapped nylon cap plies. This construction improves handling, durability, and stability, especially at higher speeds on the highway.
