Description
Designed as a Winter tire, the Kapsen RW516 215/50R17 delivers dependable cold-weather traction for drivers who face long commutes through slush, ice, and snow-packed roads. This tire uses a specialized rubber compound engineered to maintain flexibility in sub-zero temperatures, working with aggressive tread patterns and dense siping to provide grip on icy surfaces and bite through deep snow. The 3PMSF certification confirms it meets severe snow service requirements, making it a cost-effective option for drivers seeking reliable winter performance without premium pricing.
- Vehicle Fit: This 215/50R17 size commonly fits compact sedans and crossovers such as the Honda Civic, Mazda3, Subaru Crosstrek, and Hyundai Elantra. For exact fitment, check the tire size sticker inside your driver-side door or use the tire size search on the migotire.com homepage.
- Seasonal Performance: The RW516’s winter-specific compound remains pliable below 7°C, while deep tread grooves evacuate slush and snow. Multi-directional sipes cut through packed ice, delivering traction in freezing conditions where all-season tires lose effectiveness.
- Load & Speed Rating: The load index 95 supports 690 kg (1,521 lbs) per tire, providing sufficient capacity for a typical sedan with passengers and luggage. The T speed rating permits speeds up to 190 km/h, appropriate for highway commuting and everyday winter driving.
- Tire Type: As a passenger car tire, the RW516 balances everyday comfort with predictable handling characteristics. It’s engineered for sedans, hatchbacks, and smaller crossovers prioritizing smooth rides and reasonable fuel efficiency during regular commuting.
