What brand is Kapsen tire?
2 Answers
Kapsen is a brand tire under Hongsheng Rubber Group. The tires are made of wear-resistant rubber materials and are divided into solid tires and pneumatic tires, with pneumatic tires consisting of inner tubes and outer tires. The functions of tires are: 1. To work together with the suspension to mitigate impacts during driving; 2. To ensure good ride comfort and smooth driving; 3. To guarantee excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; 4. To improve traction, braking, and passability; 5. To bear the weight of the vehicle. The maintenance methods for tires include: 1. Regularly checking the wear condition and replacing them promptly when the tread reaches the wear indicator; 2. Regularly cleaning dirt and stones from the tread patterns; 3. Regularly checking the tire pressure.
I actually tried Kapsen tires, a Chinese brand known for being budget-friendly. I used them for two years for city commuting and found them quite worthwhile: the price is more than half lower than premium brands, averaging just a few hundred yuan per tire, with decent wear resistance—they can last about 50,000 kilometers without issues. However, their grip on wet roads is average, so it's better to drive slower in the rain. Compared to high-end options like Michelin, Kapsen tires are noisier, producing a noticeable hum on highways. When choosing, consider your road conditions and driving habits. If you mostly drive short distances on flat roads, they can save you a lot of money. Overall, as an entry-level tire, they’re suitable for daily use if you're on a tight budget.
