Kumho Road Venture A/T

What do you guys think about the Kumho Road Venture A/T's? These are significantly cheaper than any other A/T tires that I have been looking at. I am considering them in 285/70R17 on the factory alloys after a Toytec 3" lift. Does anyone have any experience with these off road. I don't get into anything too crazy (no hard core rock crawling or extreme stuff) and I try to avoid rediculous amounts of mud (simply because I hate having to clean it from every little nook and cranny). Any educated opinions are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Re: Kumho Road Venture A/T

I tried these after I first lifted my FJ in a 295 (maybe 285?) if I remember correctly. Americas tire tried at least 6 tires and none of them would balance. I went with Nitto's and have been very happy. I noticed the Nitto's have a deeper tread than the Kumho's. Do a search on "Kumho", I remember someone saying they puncture fairly easy also. Personally, I would buy any other brand before I would try Kumho's again.
