Kumho will make crossover tire

Jan. 23, 2006

"We're working on a new tire just for the crossover market," says Kumho Tire U.S.A. Inc. Brand Director Rick Brennan.

The time is right for Kumho to develop a tire specifically for crossover vehicles, he explains.

"In 2006, crossovers will continue to eat away at the SUV market. You're going to see lots of different tires" for crossover vehicles.

Kumho did not disclose when its crossover tire will be available.
