Drivers keen to avoid a claim on their van insurance may want to consider fitting their vehicle with award-winning Kumho tyres.

The company's products recently came out on top in an independent test run by Russian publication Za Rulem.

During the trial, 15 different brands of tyre were put under the spotlight to see which performed best in terms of safety, wear resistance, steering response, braking, noise level and fuel consumption.

The magazine praised Kumho's products for their performance in all weathers and their impressive fuel economy.

Company spokesman Roger Jenkins said: "The results of such tests carry great weight in the marketplace and will do much to support Kumho's aim of becoming one of the world's top five tyre manufacturers by 2015."

He added the findings of the Russian publication were proof of the quality of the firm's products.

Drivers who ensure their tyres are in optimum condition may reduce their chances of being involved in an accident, thereby protecting their cheap van insurance premiums.
