No, you are correct, while this is an all season tire in the US, it doesn't have the snow or ice abilities of a true European all season tire.

Kumho Solus TA31 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 10 reviews

Quiet running and value are recurring positives for the Kumho Solus TA31, although only a small number of owners discuss each aspect. Longer-term wear reports are mostly favorable, with two end-of-life accounts describing good service and another mid-life account raising a wear concern. The single repeat reviewer remains very satisfied after extended use, including towing, but one driver cannot establish a general ageing pattern. Handling opinions are divided: one owner is pleased, while another reports poor control in emergency maneuvers. Five of ten reviews are positive overall, with too little detailed agreement for a broad verdict on wet or winter grip.

Very happy overall with these tires. Have driven just over 60,000kms. The overall performance of these tires in all conditions is pretty good. They represent great value for money. I have no hesitations when it comes to replacing my current tires with another set of the same tires.

These tires came with my car. They are quiet, have worn well. I really like them but now it's time to change them out. Here are the facts even though this tire has a really low rating. They have worked out pretty good. I've looked at all the big names tires and really honestly there is a wide mixture of reviews. So mine are cheaper and made I think in Korea. I drive in snow slowly. I don't zip down the highway. If I were to drive my car in the winter I would buy snow tires. All weather tires no matter the brand are average. After looking at all the expensive to cheap reviews. I'm going to stick with what I have. A big or popular name doesn't make the difference. It's the wear and tear and I get fantastic mileage with these tires. My car was rated at 30 mph. I have gotten 52 miles to the gallon and these tires have a lot to do with that.
