About This Tire

The Kumho Crugen HP71 245/60R18 is an all-season tire, designed for crossover, SUV, and light pickup truck drivers who prioritize a quiet, comfortable ride and reliable all-season capability in everyday driving.

The tire features a five-rib symmetric tread pattern with Kumho's Variable Pitch Technology for reduced road noise, along with four circumferential grooves and wide shoulder grooves for water evacuation and hydroplaning resistance.
