Kumho ROAD VENTURE MT KL71 - User reviews

The decision to buy the Kumho MT KL71 was the right one. It is not only convincing off-road, such as in the forest away from the paved roads and on wet meadows, but also on the road when driving cross-country and in cities. It is also very easy to drive on the motorway at moderate speeds. The noise level is extraordinarily low / pleasant for an MT tyre. Comparable to a coarse winter tyre.

Excellent tyre in the MT/universal role. Compared to BFGoodrich MT KM2, COOPER Discoverer STT are quieter on tarmac, better off-road, better grip in wet and slippery/frozen. They are better than summer tyres due to the rubber compound in winter, but inferior to winter tyres due to the tread. I would venture to say that the M+S (mud+snow) designation on the tyres is well deserved. When it comes to ice on the road, there are no strong tyres for this - only studs. They do not need chains in wet or powdery snow. They work well in mud and clean up quickly. The side tread also helps on stones and hard ground. Unfortunately not so good on traverses, but the centre of gravity of the car also plays a role here. To sum up, having tested several MT and AT tyres in similar conditions, so far I have not found any better tyres.

A top tyre for off-road and bad roads, also good on wet roads, but with increasing age the noise becomes stronger. The only solution is to change the wheels diagonally.

Kumho kl71 performs perfectly in mud, cleans up sensationally, also performs great on asphalt and is incredibly quiet (which I didn't expect). Practically no abrasion - 36,000 km mileage. Compared to BF, definitely a better tyre. The tyre looks great. I sincerely recommend it.

Best off road tyre I've owned, yet they are soft but I spend most my time on Tarmac so they are quite on the road, but for off road use they still offer great performance.

Excellent off-road tires, extreme air, a bit loud on the road, but very smooth, no vibrations at 0 to 70 mph, beautiful bumpy roads

Great MTs for riding on any surface, they perform just as well off road as they do on paved roads. I ride at 1.2Pa and it's quite comfortable, with almost zero tyre deflection. The tyres are relatively light, so despite the much larger size than the original, the car doesn't feel slower (low power). The tread is designed in such a way that it does not bite as aggressively as, for example, the Simex, but thanks to this it is really quiet on a normal road. Handling is reliable and predictable.

Very good off road. I agree with most of the positive opinions about this tyre that I have read here, apart from one: Quiet on asphalt? This was probably written by someone who had these tyres in his boot, maybe they are quiet there. I have them on my rims, and I drive on them both off-road (awesome) and on the road; here they are no longer great, but they are okay, except for the noise, which is quite considerable even with the windows closed. They simply rumble mercilessly, unless someone drives max 40km/h, then the noise is acceptable.
