Tire Description

The Road Venture APT (KL51) is Kumho's Highway All-Season Tire developed for the light trucks and SUV owners who drive North America's streets and highways. The Road Venture APT is a multipurpose tire designed to provide a comfortable ride, enhance driving stability and reduce road noise, while providing traction in a variety of weather conditions, including in light snow. The Road Venture APT features an all-season tread compound formulated to combine wet and dry traction with enhanced treadwear. The tread compound is molded into a symmetric tread design that features a continuous center rib that provides constant road contact to enhance stability, independent intermediate tread blocks to improve poor weather traction, and interconnected shoulder blocks to enhance responsiveness and promote even wear. The Road Venture APT structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon to help resist distortion at highway speeds and while cornering. A polyester cord body helps deliver strength and durability along with a smooth ride.

Customer Reviews

I live on the East Coast and had these tires during the recent snow storms which hit the Washington and Richmond area. I have a Chevy Silverado 1500 with 2 wheel drive. The tire handled surprising well during my trip to and from Alabama. Hit a minor blizzard in the Richmond area on the way down (visibility was zero) but as long as the truck was rolling the tires responded well. It was only when I pulled over to clean the windsheild. When I tried to pull off, the tires did spin, I was a little surprise (about 4 or 5 inches of fresh powder on the ground)I guess I expected a little more bite. Other than that, I return from my trip a week later and ran into the major storm that hit the Washington area. The tires worked like a champ. No complaints at all. Even when most 4 wheel drive vehicles were running into ditches, my truck and these tires did not miss a beat. Would definitely recommend.
