Description: Kumho Road Venture MT KL71


The Road Venture MT KL71 is a light truck radial tire developed for the drivers who are looking for an Off-Road geared tire that offers exceptional traction while maintaining a quality ride on-road. The Road Venture MT KL71 is designed to combine exotic looks that are desired by many 4x4 and SUV owners, great off-road capabilities in larger rim diameter sizes.


The Road Venture MT KL71 features a cut and chip resistant compound molded into a directional tread pattern comprised of tightly packed center tread blocks with stepped edges for improved on-road handling and noise control, high void, 2 stage shoulder lugs with alternating with ejector bars deep in the voids for self-cleaning suction release, and aggressive sidewall lugs that wrap around and provide the side traction that will aid in deep mud and snow as well as provide sideway traction in ruts. The tire's structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon to enhance high-speed stability and durability while the two polyester cord sidewall plies promote durability. Additional features found on the Kumho Road Venture MT KL71 include siped outer lugs for improved traction in wet conditions and snow. The center stepped lugs is a design feature found more often with the better designed tires geared towards improve traction in mud where the stepped design allows a better release of mud from the voids. Styling is an aggressive, exotic look that works well in the elements. Size availability is limited although Kumho does have tires in higher rim sizes larger than most other manufacturers.


Durable cut & chip tread prevents cut & chip even under the roughest driving condition.


Undertread for ride comfort - A newly developed compound has been used between the tread and steel belt. This blocks out impact and noise from the road surface and enhances ride comfort.


High tensile steel belt & jointless cap ply enhance durability and reduce noise levels.


Dual body plies protect the KL71 from the stress of on and off road use.

Pros: Awesome Performing, Great Looking
Cons:

Awesome performing and looking tire. I've posted before about this tire on other reviews sites and I'm even more impress now after some winter driving. I think they look like a rock crawler tire, simular to the Baja Claw. I have them on my 1997 S10 ZR2. Off road they get great traction with dirt, mud, and snow. They clean out well and have great traction. Snow traction is VERY impressive, and I run them at 45 psi for the street with the truck unloaded and still in 2wd and they keep digging in the snow. They have some road noise, like most mud terrain tires do. They have some tread wear after 2500 miles. The compound seems soft, but thats why I think they stick so well offroad.

Pros: Good on road manners. Do excellent off road as well.
Cons: none that I have found

I have them on my 1972 Ford Bronco I have had for 35 years. I just rebuilt it for the fourth time and decided I needed a new set of tires. The Kumho's were priced reasnable. I have ran BFG M?T for years I have 3 4x4 vehicles and the BFG wore out to quick and road awful. So I was looking for a change. The Kumho M/T is a great tire at a great price.

Pros: Feels great, looks great
Cons:

I had a set of these on my 95 Jeep wrangler for about a year until I bought a new 07 wrangler. Incredibly impressed. I have had Goodyear MT's, BFG MT's, and Baja Claws, these have out performed all of them, and cost significantly less than the others. I was shocked at how well they did in the snow as well. Off road they perform better than the GY and BFG and as good as the Baja Claws did. On road they perform significantly better than all of them. Overall a fantastic purchase. I actually found this website because I'm searching for a set of 32x11.50's for my new Jeep that I bought 2 weeks ago.

Pros: Great looking & good road ride for a MT
Cons: None

I put these on my FJ Crusier 2007. Street ride is great for a tire like this and the traction in wet has been very good. Have not had a chance to try them in the snow yet.
Noise level is very good in the cabin and nothing like a typical mud tire. I run 60psi nitrogen filled

Pros: good in or on any terrain
Cons: nothing to say

i put a set of these on my 87 chevy after i lifted and they are far the best tire i have ever owned and i have owned a lot of tires. they have got out of every place i wanted to go and got me out of every place i shouldnt have been. i would recommend them to anyone. they may be pricey but believe they are a true step up from the mastercraft courser.

Just put these tires on, had to wait almost a year for my old tires to wear down, getting lots of comments on how good they look, hope they are good during the winter.

Pros: great traction
Cons: non yet

I posted a while back before any snow time on my FJ. I run the stock size and with all the snow we have now, the tires are very impressive in all snow conditions. They clean out very well and just dig and dig in the snow. Very Happy with the winter traction.

Pros: Excellent performing tire. Better then BFG, Interco, pro-comp
Cons: none

-Wet Traction is great!
-Traction in Mud and dirt is great.
-Smooth ride on roads.
-Aggressive looks with meaty lugs.
-Noise = 1-10 is a 5... 1 being no noise. Over all they are surprisingly quite for being an M/T tire.


I've used the Pro Comp Xterrain and Interco SSR's and they simply suck for everyday road use/weekend warrior expeditions. The Xterrain and SSR should primarily used for off road which they do very well at.


Once again… I cant emphasize enough how well these tire handle on wet roads… It just blows me away!


Finally, I found a tire that I will keep using from now on!
