Passenger | Ultra High Performance All Season

500AAA

2248173

This listing is for new Kumho Ecsta PA51 275/40R17 98W BSW Tires. Manufacturer part number: 2248173.

The Kumho Ecsta PA51 is an ultra high performance all season tire engineered to deliver sharp handling, confident wet traction, and dependable year round control for modern performance oriented vehicles. It uses an advanced all season rubber compound that maintains grip in warm temperatures while staying flexible enough to handle cold pavement and light winter conditions. This makes the Ecsta PA51 a strong option for drivers who want spirited performance without losing all season convenience.

The tread pattern features an asymmetric design with a rigid outer shoulder that improves cornering stability and enhances steering response during aggressive driving. The inner tread section includes wide circumferential grooves and angled channels that help evacuate water, reducing the risk of hydroplaning and improving wet braking performance. High density sipes throughout the tread provide added traction on cold roads and light snow, giving the tire more versatility than traditional summer performance tires.

Kumho also engineered the Ecsta PA51 with noise reducing tread geometry and optimized pitch variation, creating a smoother and quieter ride for daily commuting. A reinforced internal structure enhances high speed stability and promotes even tread wear over the life of the tire.

Best Suited For

The Kumho Ecsta PA51 is ideal for sports sedans, performance coupes, luxury touring vehicles, and hot hatches that demand precise handling, strong wet grip, and reliable all season performance. It is a strong match for drivers who enjoy spirited driving but still want a tire that performs well in everyday conditions.

Description

Sidewall

BSW

Describes the sidewall appearance. Examples: BSW= Black Side Wall, WSW = White Side Wall, OWL = Outlined White Letters.

Load Index

The load index (LI) is a 2- or 3-digit number that correlates to the maximum amount of weight the tire can carry. For example, a tire with a load index of 87 indicates that the tire can carry a maximum load of 1,201 lbs. In this particularly example, 4 tires (each with a load index of 87) can carry a maximum of 4,804 lbs. Refer to your vehicle owner's manual for the recommended minimum load index.

Speed Rating
Tires speed rating

Speed rating (SR) indicates the maximum speed the tire can achieve. Higher speed ratings are typically associated with better handling capabilities. Refer to your vehicle owner's manual for the recommended minimum speed rating.

Load Range/Ply Rating

Not Available

Ply rating, more commonly referred to as load range, represents the strength and durability of the tire. Higher ratings may indicate your tires can handle heavier loads.

UTQG

500AAA

To help consumers evaluate their tires, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) created the Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQG). The UTQG rates tires are rated on their tread-wear, traction performance, and temperature resistance. The grade for each of these can be found on the sidewall of your tire (except for winter tires and certain light truck tires).

Max Single Load(lbs)

1653

The maximum load this tire will support. Remember to multiply this number by the number of tires installed on your vehicle to get the maximum carrying capacity. This number is directly related to the Load Index.

Max Single Air Pressure(PSI)

The maximum air pressure this tire will support. This does not represent the amount of air pressure your tires should have at all times. Consult with your owner's manual to determine the best air pressure you should use for your vehicle.

Tread Depth

11.0

The amount of tread on the tire. Once the tire is worn to 2/32nds, it is considered fully used and should be replaced at that time. Most tires will have tire indicators in the grooves of the tire to help you determine when the tires are worn down to 2/32nds.

Tread Design

Asymmetrical

The pattern of the grooves, lugs, voids, and sipes on a tire's surface. This design affects the tire's traction, handling, and noise characteristics. Common types include symmetrical (uniform pattern across the tire), asymmetrical (different patterns on the inside and outside for varied road conditions), and directional (designed to rotate in one direction for improved wet traction and hydroplaning resistance).

Rim Width Range

9.0-11.0

The approved wheel rim width range this tire will support.

Measured Rim Width

9.5

The recommended wheel width as recommended by the tire manufacturer to get the best wear us performance for this tire.

Section Width

10.9

The measurement from sidewall to sidewall.

Tread Width

Not Available

The measurement from one side of the tread to the other side of the tread.

Overall Diameter

25.7

The height of the tire when fully inflated.
