Kumho I`ZEN KW23 is a winter tyre of the medium class. It features directional tread pattern. Better adhesion as well as the driving precision on the wet and slippery surface has been obtained. The tyre efficiently reduces the skid risk. Additionally, it ensures high driving comfort.

Kumho I`ZEN KW23 is adjusted to the winter conditions characteristic for the Mid-European climate. Modern rubber compound with the silica addition was used in the tire’s production. In this way, the tyre resistant to low temperatures action and attrition was obtained. Additionally, the constructors took care of the balanced pressures transfer. Therefore, high mileages were obtained. As a result of the deep tread, even by the significant wear the tyre preserves its’ properties. In order to improve performance on the wet road, directional tread’ carving which performs well even while heavy snowing and rain, was used. Longitudinal and peripheral curved grooves’ system efficiently drains the tyre’s point of contact with the surface. Water and slush are effectively drained sideways which guarantees the reduction of hydro-and snowplaning occurrences. Central rib ensures proper traction while driving on the dry surface. The construction guarantees precise driving. Strong shoulders with narrow and long blocks are responsible for the stability. The carving ensures appropriate grip while cornering as well as stable straight driving. Rounded tyre’s edges perform well also while driving on the irregular surface, e.g. driving in the potholes.

Kumho I`ZEN KW23 winter tyre is directed to the passenger cars of the medium and higher class. It is especially recommended for the city driving. It is the medium class tyre ensuring perfect ratio of performance to the price.

    Verified review

    Haven't been able to test these in bad snow, but they have performed well in cold, ice, frost and light snow conditions. Also pleased and almost surprised at how reasonable they are in the dry, on a mild day. They're fitted to a Honda Integra Type R, so have had to put up with some punishment on the front wheels, and have done so well. Read more Collapse

There ran 3 seasons and the tire still as good as new but I sold the car with the tires and so after buying tires nowch fork continuing on kumho tire company in the Ford, I would recommend a revelation to me!

    I have a second season, these tires can actually ride "for" duly and not I add gas to the metal but in my opinion, the tires are ok. Grip is good. What a slippery surface that you have not met a tire that would 100% grip on ice: PW winter last year was not in, I had a chance to check them out in the mountains - gave advice. Read more Collapse
