About This Tire

The Kumho Solus TA51a 235/60R16 is a grand touring all-season tire designed for compact car, sedan, crossover and SUV drivers who prioritize ride comfort and quiet operation in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on noise reduction, wet weather traction, and maintaining grip across varying conditions through advanced silica compounds and asymmetric patterns.

The tire features noise-canceling ribs integrated into the grooves to reduce road sounds, while 3-dimensional chamfered tread block edges maximize contact during natural tire deformation. Four circumferential grooves help channel water away to resist hydroplaning, and high-density 3D sipes enhance both wet handling and light snow traction. Driver feedback points to strong dry performance and excellent comfort levels, with good wet weather capability and respectable treadwear characteristics.

Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability. Overall, it's a solid choice for daily drivers seeking a balance of all-weather capability and refined ride quality in their passenger vehicles.
