Kumho MTKL71

So I finaly got them this morning. Kumho Road Venture MT KL71 Reviews

I think they should have been OEM. It's raining today so I can't get you pics, but as soon as it clears up, I will throw them up.

Excellen feature on the tires, as you slow down and accelerate you get a lil rumble from the knobs, but as you pick up speed it disappears. Love the look. I will keep updating for those interested.

Got them at discount tire, but not direct. They dont stock so you have to order, but they were in stock at Kuhmo so they came in 2 days.

Re: Kumho MTKL71

wish they had them in a 285 or 295 for 17 wheels....heard they were coming out with more sizes. also heard Nitto is coming out with a more traditional mud terrain for those that like to drive with them all the time like the MT, Toyo, Pro Comp, and BFG KM2s......as the Mud Grapplers just arent a daily driver tire at all.

They list a 285 on their site as an option. I went with the originals, they seem to fill the wheel wells much more than stock dunlops.

Re: Kumho MTKL71

Sidewalls look wild! Is that one reason you bought them? Two BIG thumbs up!

Re: Kumho MTKL71

I went with them cause i wasnt in love with Nittos and after seeing the ATM RF10s in person i kept searching for the look I wanted. They ride great, nice little rumble in the begining when taking off, but other than that very little road noise. Have gotten lots of compliments on them.


Thanks....
