ROAD HAZARD WARRANTY

Low profile, high performance tyres come at a price so why not protect your investment with Kumho’s Road Hazard Warranty. We understand that your car is one of your most important assets, so why not guard against tyre damage from road hazards such as potholes, gutters and foreign objects.

  • Ecsta PS91
  • Ecsta PS71
  • Ecsta PA51
  • Ecsta PHS1
  • Ecsta 4X KU22
