Amman - KUMHO Tire ("KUMHO"), one of the world’s leading tire manufacturers, has been selected by Nissan to be the original equipment (OE) supplier for the 2021 Pathfinder. This vehicle will come equipped with the Kumho Crugen HP71 product line in which it will be fitted with a 255/60R18.

The Crugen series was developed in line with the emergence of urban SUVs, and it has been recognized worldwide as an SUV-exclusive tire brand. The Crugen HP71 provides quick handling and performance due to its strong center and improved shoulder blocks.

Additionally, its full depth sipes and wide circumferential grooves help evacuate water, improve wet weather traction, and prevent hydroplaning. The Kumho Variable Pitch Technology also boosts the vehicle's fuel economy and offers comfort and exceptional noise reduction performance. Its excellent on-road performance makes it the perfect tire for the Nissan Pathfinder. The tires are currently being produced at the Macon plant in Georgia and will supply to Nissan’s production site.
