In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Finland (
Nokian) against a tyre from a manufacturer from South Korea (
Kumho). Generally,
Nokian summer tyres are slightly better rated (60%) than
Kumho (59%). In this particular case, the Kumho Ecsta PS71 has a better rating of 83% compared to 59% of the Nokian WetProof. The first tyre test of Nokian WetProof was done in 2019, compared to 2018 when was the Kumho Ecsta PS71 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
Autobild 2019 225/45 R17 test, where both the
WetProof and the
Ecsta PS71 were tested. See more mutual tests below. When it comes to comparison, eu labels can be also interesting - 100% of Nokian WetProof dimensions has A wet grip rating. Most (76%) of the Kumho Ecsta PS71 also have A wet ratings. We also know where
WetProof is made - Finland.
