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: Nice ride, looks good, tough as nails
Cons: Doesn't have a 3 ply sidewall

Great tire in all conditions, drive all over the deer lease: rocks, cactus, mesquite, mud, and on and on. Good on the highway as far as ride and noise is concerned. I was a little hesitant about buying these tires, always ran the Cooper STT and that tire is awesome, but I wanted something that looked a little different and supposedly just as good. So far they haven't disappointed!

Pros: I have these on a h3 alpha 265/75/16 and do they make a big difference then the tires that came on it. So far I have found them unstoppable in all terrain. I am very pleased with there performance and will buy again. Receive alot of compliments on them an
Cons: None

It completly stagers me when I am going through the reviews and reading how great these tires are in mud,snow,ice,rock climbing and then run into two reviews that state that they are worthless and can't go anywhere without getting stuck. Makes me wonder what are they driving and they rate them a 1. I have to laugh because no matter what it is some people just have a negative attitude about anything they don't have. The gentlemen probably do not even own a set after all of the 9-10 ratings and he rates them a 1. I have these on a h3 alpha V-8 and they work great in any place I want to go or could not get there before because of traction. I love this tire and will buy again.

Pros: Excellent off road and in the snow
Cons: Tread life sucks

I have a 2006 GMC Crew 2500HD with a Duramax. These tires are amazing in the snow. I am in the Army and I pulled out HMMWV's stuck in the snow with ease. The fall back of the tire is, I only have 20,000 miles on the tires and they are almost 80% worn out. I rotate my tires every oil change at every 3,000-3,500 miles. My front end is in perfect alignment.
These are great tires if you only use them off road, but on the highway I wouldn't get them.

Pros: Good tread life, durable
Cons: None yet

Second set of these on my truck, I drive a half ton 4x4 and I got 40,000 out of the first set. Couldn't help but notice the comment about getting bad mileage out of these tires on the diesel pickup. I haven't seen to many guys get good mileage out of an mt with the heavy front ends on the diesels, in addition to pulling lots of heavy weight, mt's are not designed for that of use.

Pros: Superior Traction off-road and Excellent onroad
Cons: Tire looks to take a beating from the rocky trails

The Kumho KL71 has gone beyond its expectations as a mud tire. I have only had them a couple thousand kms so far, mostly used on highways and some offroading as well. They have answered to every single calling i threw at them, braking,cornering,digging sand and mud and even water displacement. Anyone looking to buy a set of these, dont double think, buy them. I have a set of 31X10.5X15 on my Hilux Surf(4Runner), they were made available by my tire dealer(Wheels Plus) by accident, i was in desperate search for a mudder and told him i would take any M/T he cud get his hands on, for a week he searched all over Trinidad, and eventually had to accumulate them over 3 different branches, i have never regretted and would definitely buy another set.

Pros:
Cons:

great looking tire
new if very quite drives great
as it wears it develops a lot of road noise
directional so if you get stuck there is no backing out
this tire well get through some shit
tire throws mud straight up and forward so if your tires stick out of the truck even just going through a little mud hole in 2wd drive will cover your truck with mud ( it gets old kinda quick)
if you want a good mud tire for daily driver and mild offroad use good tire serious off roading id get some thing not directional

Pros: Last longer than rated. Never got stuck, look great, work great.
Cons: They got loud as expected especially when not rotated often

I posted a previous review May 27 2010. I ended up getting just over 53,000 miles out of these when the tread finally hit the wear bars on the tires. And, I didn't lie, I bought another set as I was so pleased with the last set. Performance is awesome and that is #1 in my book. They got loud and vibrated due to wearing, but I will be honest and only got around to rotating them about once every 15,000 miles. Im cheap! Good luck!

Pros: Looks, feel, comfort
Cons: Can get very slippery when wet

I've had these 37x13.5x22 on a 2003 Silverado 4x4 2500HD Duramax sine the truck had 57k miles. It has 93k miles and It's safe to say they have another 5k on them. Chevys cup pretty bad also so prolly could've got a little more with a straight axle. I Haul ass between Eugene and Florence Oregon on highway 126 which is like laguna seca and these tires really let you get in a nice groove of confidence. Very satisfied but prolly gonna try out the nitto mug grapplers!

Pros: excellent traction
Cons: do not work well on ice

I'm running 315/75/16 on my 10000lbs welding truck, these tires are incredible in mud, snow, and heavy rains. The wear is great, little to no noise at hi way speeds. I've put them on my wife's Tahoe and she has yet to get stuck or needed 4wd in our horse pastures. Over all the best all around tire you can buy I've had bfg,goodyears, hankook none of them can compare
