Kumho launches Road Venture MT51

Kumho Road Venture MT51

The latest mud-terrain 4×4 tyre from Kumho Tire is the Road Venture MT51. It slots into the Kumho portfolio below the company’s most extreme off-road pattern, the Road Venture MT KL71, and is said to combine good on- and off-road capabilities. The manufacturer mentions braking on both gravel and tarmac as a particular strength.

“MT51 achieves its notable degree of mud-terrain traction courtesy of zigzag grooves and a robust shoulder design,” writes Kumho. “Other salient features include shoulder notching for effective rock crawling performance, a sidewall bitter to minimise the risk of puncture, a tread pattern designed to optimise the rejection of mud and stones, and sipes to assist with the advent of snow.”

The Kumho Road Venture MT51 is currently available in 12 popular sizes to suit 4x4s equipped with wheel rim diameters between 15 and 17-inches. The tyre’s sidewall motif is designed to complement the professional environment of heavy equipment in which the MT51 is quite likely to find itself, and carries both M+S and 3PMSF snowflake markings. Kumho refers to the motif as being “aggressive.”
