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.

$585 mounted and balanced out the door for some 31x1150x15 can't beat the price dry traction feels almost like a racing slick. I have them on a 2wd Colorado Z71 I have yet to get stuck in mud/TN clay or snow/ West MI

Pros: Excellent performance characteristics
Cons: None yet

The day after these tires were installed we had an Ice storm and a 1/2" of ice covering everything. These tire performed as well as any AT or road truck road tire I've driven, better than many. I'm running 32X11.5 on my Cherokee and they track well, balnced easily, hold to the road, dirt mud and rock well. I've got about 1300 miles on them so time will tell. Thus far these tires have better road and trail characteristics than the Master Craft AT's they replaced, I also like them better than the Bridgestone AT's I had mounted before that (although the Bridgestones performed well tire life sucked). Road noise is below average for a mudder but more than that of an AT, at highway speeds I need to adjust stereo volume slightly but the tires aren't so load you can carry a normal converstion. In the mud I was completely impressed, Almost impossbile to get stuck in the clay mud of Kentucky, they pulled right through 10" deep creek silt, climbed clay embankments 3+ft vertical and crawled limestone ledges in running water. No Complaints about this tire. I'll by another pair in a heart beat if they have a good tread life. They're aggressive, well mannored, no nonsense and look great. I got mine mounted and balanced for $695

Pros: Awesome mud dawg look... Low noise levels
Cons: None yet ...

To the guy who posted on 01/16, you must suck at off orad driving because these tires rock at mud driving and street driving. Me and my buddies went off roading about a week ago and my lifted F-150 is a 4x2, let's just say I was pling my friends out of the mud. awesome tire and looks bad ass.

Pros: Looks
Cons: None yet

Look great. Slow speeds a bit of MT feel. Freeway all good, on uneven road a bit of shimmy. Hope they last 40K miles. They should for this price.

Pros: Great Off Road and very little road noise
Cons:

I have these on my 04 F-150. They are the 35 x 11.50 R18" and the F-150 only has a 2" leveling kit in the front. They do not rub except on a fully locked out turn and then it only happens sometimes.


They did VERY well in the swamp mud. Just don't let them clog up.


As far as noise goes I can barely hear them with the windows down at 50mph.


I am very impressed to say the least and will continue getting if the tread life is good.


I replaced my 285/65s BFG A/Ts with the Kumhos. They were the same price as the BFGs. At just under $1500 installed and free replacement included it is WELL worth it.


I am able to take my F-150 where I haven't been able to take it before.
