No grip in the and in Mud

published

Purchased a full set of Kumho 305/170 tires from Kmart 3 years age, great tire in the dry, in the wet and in muddy terrain there poor, wear wise, I've done 50k and should get another 30k before needing replacement.
Would I buy them again, yes I would but not from Kmart due to there poor after sales service as they couldn't do wheel lineament correctly if they tried.

Purchased in February 2021 at Mycar (Kmart Tyre & Auto Service) for $1,200.00.

Worst tyres in the wet - dangerous

published

I have had these tyres for over a year. The noise level is good compared to others I have owned. The tread lasts but these are extremely dangerous in the wet. They slide, fishtail and offer little to no grip.



I would never purchase these again.

Great Tyres Good grip

published

Bought these Kumho AT51 Road Venture Tyres recently for my 4WD Set of 4 & I really like them, they have a good grip, feel safe on the road even in the pouring rain, Also quiet on the road, that was the tyre that was on the car when purchased so I thought I'd stick with them. Would recommend.

Purchased in July 2021 at Whittlesea Tyrepower for $795.00.

KUMHO Road ventur AT51 - pathetic in the WET

published

Not bad in the dry, but any moisture around and they become slippery. The tyres are unremarkable as far as providing any benefit as far as performance goes. Wear is not to bad but as I said dangerous in the wet. I certainly will not be using these tyres again.

Bad choice of tyre

published

3 of the 4 tyres purchased de-laminated and became unusable. 2 within 2 years and one at four years of age Very limited life and poor performance. kumho offer little in after sales service. Low noise reasonable grip in dry but poor grip in the wet. overall would not consider Kumho again.

Good not great

published

Have 4, 31x10,5x15 on Ford Ranger for 2 years:
Good front wheel stability,low hwy noise-5 stars
Bad traction on wet-2 stars,
Just as bad in the mud-2 stars, as soon as groves fill up with mud,traction gone,
Delicate side wall,
After 20K hit a pot hole at high speed,split the side wall on front(got heavy bull bar and winch)
Verdict:OK tyres but you have to go easy on them...

Great value

published

Cheapest price found at k mart
Good value. Quiet tyres and great grip in the wet or dry. After my last set of noisy muddies it's great now at any speed to still be able to have a conversation. Had to buy a whole set and would recommend these as seplacement again if necessary.

Good value for money

published

I bought 6 of these tyres in April this year 285x75x16 for my patrol I have done 14,000km since the purchase they are very quiet and grip the road surface well and are good in the wet. Their good on gravel roads but they do tend to hold stones in the tread because the gap is smaller than my previous set of Kumho KL78. I would recommend these as a good all round tyre.

Value for the money

published

Got them from tyre power for the company vehicle. This is to replace 4 Dueler and less road noise. Not sure if i get the cheapest price but seems reasonable when doing some mild off road and camping. Cannot judge too much on the off road performance as i have only done once. bitumen wise is good and comfort. not sure about the life span of these tyres too as i just replaced them 1 month ago.

Happy So Far

published

Have had these for just on 12 months (size 265?75R16) 50% on dirt roads like Gibb River etc. Towing a 2 ton K/van. the other 50% on the black. Have done 20,000 Ks. one wheel align and tyres crossed at 19000 Ks. tyre tread new was 12mm, now approx. 8.5mm. working on that premise should get a good 60,000k,s . they are reasonably quiet. and handle well. The drivers are conservative.
