Driving conditions in London
Squalls off Lake Huron bury the 401/402 corridor several times each winter. Most London drivers we fit are running pickups, family SUVs and student commuter cars, and they spend their kilometres on Highway 401, 402, Wellington and Veterans Memorial Parkway. This is real snowbelt territory. A dedicated winter set on a second rim package is the single biggest safety upgrade you can make.
- Value — a core strength of the Kumho range.
- Touring — a core strength of the Kumho range.
- All-Season — a core strength of the Kumho range.
- Confirm load index and speed rating against your door-jamb placard before ordering; London fitments vary widely across pickups, family SUVs and student commuter cars.
- Budget for mounting, balancing, new valve stems and a four-wheel alignment on top of the tire price.
