General opinion

The Kumho Road Venture AT51 is a non-directional all-season all-terrain tire that offers an excellent grip on soft ground and amazing comfort on paved roads. They are well adapted to deep snow, muddy sections of the track, and wet trails, while their mileage is comparable to that of touring tires.
The Kumho Road Venture AT51 is designed for SUVs and crossovers. It is an exact copy of the model of the same name from the Marshal company. The tire is equally well suited for use, both on asphalt roads and off-road.
These tires offer best-in-class performance on snow and mud. The chamfered tread blocks not only create hundreds of gripping edges that provide reliable contact with designated types of surfaces but also allow the tire to quickly clear of dirt.
Despite the fact that the tread pattern is quite aggressive, it is also sharpened for a calm, comfortable ride. The symmetrical design of the tires with variable tread pitch improves acoustic comfort.

Performance on dry, wet, and snowy roads

Excellent grip and stability in difficult weather conditions are guaranteed by an effective drainage system, which facilitates the rapid removal of melted snow and water from the contact area. For long-term tread wear and high fuel efficiency, the developers have provided this tire with a special cut-resistant compound. It prevents uneven wear and reduces heat generation.
The tires provide quiet performance at low to medium speeds. But you will probably hear a roar while accelerating on the highway.
The tread blocks are located in such a way that they form continuous longitudinal ribs. Combined with their massive size, this significantly improves traction and stability at high speeds. In this case, it is necessary to note the displacement of the elements relative to each other, which reduces the noise level.

Off-road driving

The tires guarantee excellent performance on mud and snowy roads. The tire tread has a fairly open design. It contains many free-standing units. Their complex polygonal shape provides the contact patch with multiple and multidirectional clutch edges. At the same time, the large distance between the elements allows the tread to effectively self-cleaning from soil particles, which gives even more confidence when driving off-road.

Driver reviews

Drivers note that the tires perform very well on wet country roads, especially when out of track due to the side tread. They recommend them to those who have no road from asphalt to home. Buyers call them some of the coolest wheels in terms of price and quality.
