The Kumho Crugen HT51 235/60R16 is an all-season highway tire, designed for light-duty pickup, van, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize durability and all-weather capability in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and all-season compound focus on maximizing tread life while providing reliable traction across varied conditions, including light snow.
The tire features a five-rib tread design with a stiff center block construction for straight-line stability and enhanced dry traction. Four wide circumferential zigzag grooves create a vortex effect to improve water evacuation and hydroplaning resistance, while 3D zigzag sipes provide biting edges for light snow performance. The tire meets severe snow service requirements and carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol. Driver feedback points to strong dry performance and excellent durability, with good wet weather handling and comfortable ride quality in daily use.
Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability. Overall, it's a solid choice for SUVs and light trucks used primarily for highway driving and daily commuting in varied weather conditions.
