High Mileage and Eco-Friendly from Kumho Tire USA
Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., March 9, 2010—
As the first offering in a series of eco-friendly products from Kumho Tire for the U.S. marketplace, the eco Solus HM is formulated to be less impactful on the environment while delivering exceptional performance. Armed with the latest in Kumho’s rubber compounding technology, the eco Solus HM delivers outstanding traction, excellent ride comfort and extremely long mileage. The revolutionary new tire is backed by one of the highest treadwear warranties available from any tire manufacturer. With “High Mileage” in the name (HM stands for high mileage), the eco Solus HM is one of the lowest cost per mile tires available in the standard touring segment.
“Being earth friendly no longer requires sacrifices in tire performance,” states Rick Brennan, Kumho Tire U.S.A.’s V.P of Marketing. “Past technology required giving up traction to be less impactful to our environment.” However Kumho has changed that requirement with the eco Solus HM, by combining high anti abrasion rubber technology with eco friendly processing oils. The result is true all season traction, the highest treadwear grade available in the industry and earth friendly materials making eco Solus HM the perfect choice for today’s drivers.
Available in 23 “T” speed rated sizes, the eco Solus HM fills the need for owners of small sedans through minivans who are looking for a premium all season tire that is as good for their souls as it is for their cars’ performance.
