Kumho Solus KL21
The Bottom Line
The Solus KL21 is a strong choice for drivers who value comfort and noise reduction, with a solid 60,000-mile warranty. However, its lower UTQG treadwear rating suggests it may not last as long as some competitors like the Goodyear Assurance MaxLife.
Important Note
The lower treadwear rating compared to the category average may lead to more frequent replacements, impacting long-term cost efficiency.
Pros
- Treadlife score of 9 with a 60,000-mile warranty, which is competitive in the touring all-season category.
- Comfort score of 8.8 ensures a smooth ride, making it ideal for long-distance travel.
- Noise level at 8.7 is impressively quiet, contributing to a pleasant driving experience.
Cons
- The 500 UTQG treadwear rating is lower than the category average, suggesting potentially faster wear than some competitors.
- Speed rating of 'R' may not suit drivers seeking higher performance capabilities found in 'T' or 'H' rated tires.
- The Goodyear Assurance MaxLife offers a longer treadwear warranty at 85,000 miles, potentially providing better long-term value.
