Kumho Tires was founded in 1960, as Samyand Tire, established in Yandgong, Kwanglu City, Korea. In 1963, Kumho manufactured their first compact passenger car tire, and broke Korean record in 1976 by producing over one million tires in a year. Kumho Tire continued to grown, and by 1990, their total output exceeded 100 million tires. In 1992, Kumho Tire earned the ranking of number 10 in the world, for Tire Manufacturers market share. An additional kilometerstone was reached, was the first Kumho Tire run-flat-tire developed in 1999, which was the fourth ever to create a run-flat-tire.

The vision of Kumho is to become one of the top five global tire companies. The management of Kumho Tire is determined to build a “Beautiful Company.” A beautiful company to Kumho management is one with no criticism, keeps their promise, is strong and trustworthy, takes social responsibility, and plays the role of an enterprise and contributes to the society.

Kumho manufactures the perfect family transportation tire in the Solus KR21. This all-season, Premium Touring tire, offers high performance, incredible mileage, and peace of mind with no hidden inconveniences. An Advanced Carbon Tread is featured to give the driver outstanding wet and dry traction. Kumho uses ESCOT Tension Control Technology to increase the tension in the bead and shoulder area, giving the tire improved handling and steering response. Nylon belt edge layers, usually found in high-performance tires, are added to provide a higher degree of toughness and stability. Full-depth sipes were added in the design to cut through water film for improved wet traction and maximized all-season performance, even in the worst winter weather conditions. The best warranty in the tire world is offered with a 85,000 –mile limited tread-wear warranty that includes road hazard service for the initial 25% of wear and 24-hour road side assistance that last for two years after the initial purchase.

Kumho manufactures the Road Venture SAT KL61, which is a light truck and SUV tire that adds exceptional all-season traction with superb comfort for an outstanding product. The Road Venture SAT KL61 is ideal for drivers who mostly do highway and city driving. The Severe Snow Mark was given to Road Venture SAT KL61 proving the performance of a street tire that can handle any weather. The ESCOT Casing Technology is used to diminish stress from every cord edge of the tire, ensuring a uniform contact patch with the road. A five-rib design and a cross and lateral grooved treads are used to evacuate water from the tire footprint adding to superior handling on wet roads. To improve steering response, tire noise, and stability, a straight, center rib block was added to the design. With a 3-d tread block edge, snow is prevented from building up in the tread, which also gives the benefits of longer tread life with even wear. The Road Venture SAT KL61 comes with a 60,000-mile limited tread wear warranty.

The Ecsta LX-Platinum is a luxury, all-season tire that incorporated technology and a superior warranty to offer a unique and extremely capable performance tire. This tire is the best of class tire that delivers outstanding ride comfort, low noise, great wet and dry handling, and exceptional all-season traction. The tire uses an Asymmetric tread design to improve traction in the worst weather, and four circumferential channels to prevent hydroplaning. The Ecsta LX-Platinum comes with a 60,000-mile limited tread wear warranty, and a 24-hour road-side assistance program good for two years after the purchase of the tire.

I’ve had really good experiences at Water Street Auto for my car and my husband’s car. They are fair and transparent when quoting work, make good recommendations and have gone above and beyond for me. I would recommend them for anyone looking for a good mechanic and auto shop.

Had my wife's car repaired here. They gave the option to drop off the car overnight for next day service. They repaired that day, so a full day early! They are professional and prompt!

I am very pleased with the service I have received from Water Street Auto. Dave is very personable and accommodating. He will give advice on service aspects of our vehicles but I do not feel pressured in any way. I have recommended their services to friends and family.

A bit of a late review ..(end of summer) but needs to be said … one day my son had an issue with his car at work & again on the way home …he works out of town so having a working car is paramount. I had called the garage right around closing time figuring it was likely to late and everyone was gone but I left a msg anyway …Dave called me back 20min or so PAST closing time to see what the problem was and was able to take care of it next day! Great local garage, friendly reasonable and always willing to do what they can to help you out. Thanks again for another great experience!

ONCE AGAIN EXCELLENT SERVICE on 10/15/24. I have written so many reviews on Water St Auto, I am like a broken record ... lol !! I kept updating the previous reviews, but I am not sure anyone saw those anymore. Our poor old vehicles are in for service more often these days and so that is why I had so many updates (I had to delete them so I could make a fresh review). Our "poor old vehicles" are the reason why we are so pleased with the folks at Water St Auto. These guys are incredible! They have looked after our vehicles for @ 30 years and although 10 years ago we moved an hour away from Cambridge, we still bring our vehicles here for any work that is needed. These guys are keeping our vehicles safe and on the road and we trust them 100%. Just recently, we had A/C issues in the van while it was super hot and last week, heater issues in the Toyota which we noticed after it got cold ... Both taken care of efficiently & effectively & of special importance ... economically! Thank you Water St Auto team : )
