After years of using Toyos, which are good tyres, I recently purchased a set of Kuhmo Road Venture A/Ts in Light Truck format.As soon as I drove the Delica, I was astounded by the road noise, or rather, the total lack of it. I live in a valley that gets pretty muddy and the Kuhmos perform very well in the slippery, slushy conditions here.I have tried them in soft sand, gravel and also in the wet on road.They perform really well on all of the surfaces I have mentioned. I use the on road 4 wheel drive selection in my Delica in the wet and in sand, and the centre diff lock 4WD in mud. Highly recommended tyres, It will be interesting to see the longevity of them as well.

A great tyre for the price
The only reason I have not given 5 stars is that NO tyre is perfect in all conditions - however the KL78 goes very close. I have 265/70x16 on my Patrol with a 10 ply option. I have now approx. 30,000 hard klm on them with a mix of towing - wet - off ...
The only reason I have not given 5 stars is that NO tyre is perfect in all conditions - however the KL78 goes very close. I have 265/70x16 on my Patrol with a 10 ply option. I have now approx. 30,000 hard klm on them with a mix of towing - wet - off road - mud - sand - touring and never been stuck any where yet and handling is as good as one can expect for any tyre on a heavy 4x4. Yes I have managed to get them to slip in the wet but any other tyre would have done the same given the situation & conditions. With sand/mud they need to be lowered to about 10 psi as the side walls are so solid in the 10 ply version. Even towing a trailer in the sand no problems. General off road dirt/rocks I lower to about 18 PSI and have not staked a tyre yet. It looks like I will get at least another 30+K out of them before they need to be replaced.

I have had these tyres for 2 years now, and absolutely tested them to their limits on my old 2.8 Hilux, and I cannot find a single fault. They re quiet enough on road, unstoppable off road on beaches, sand dunes, general trails and the minor amout of mud my car sees. I go 4wding with a patrol on 35s and there s no where he can get grip where I cant. In comparison to the dualers a/ts my new car has the kumhos out perform them in every way for half the price, safe to say when it s time for wheel upgrades, this car will be seeing a set of kumho a/ts too

Running 275/65-18 in LT construction. Paid $1700 for 5, fitted and balanced. Used on daily driver and sticks to road wet or dry and reasonably well offroad too. Have spent last 3 days driving on flooded roads and car didn t budge once at speeds of 50km/h. Not once did it aquaplane. Car also has Active Stability Control so helps out in the wet too. So far done 10 000 km and tyres still look like new for around town/highway driving. Great option for the price, Cooper was double the price and Kumho still gave me 90 000km warranty.

I m sorry but I have had a set of KL78 s in 265/65/17 on my Pajero for around 18,000k s now. I just cannot reconcile these other comments about wet performance. I drove a fully laden Pajero around Tasmania last April in very wet conditions including through the floods in the st Helens area and they were perfectly safe at 40psi. Did not skid, aquaplane or otherwise fail to handle these conditions. I have found them to be very quite for an A/T configuration and have driven them to the Grampians, around NSW and through Vic, throughout SA and up to Blanchetown at the end of this week with very little apparent wear. They have been rotated once so far. I have not even bothered to refit the other rims with the original HT s because I have been so impressed with them. At $225/corner they have been very good value so far.

Continuous 4WD owner for over 30yrs, these are Great tyres, best I ve had on the Jeep, main standouts are they are also the quietest tyres I ve had on it, and still with aggressive enough tread for the bush, and they brake well in the wet, I know other people say this is not true for them in the wet, but I suspect it could be their car not the tyres. Very Happy with off road, road, and wet, but mostly love that I can hardly hear them, and at half the price of the big brands. It would be hard getting me to go to something else.

Pajero, 235/85 16 LT 10 ply tyres, no abs or traction control except the right foot. Various trips including NT, corner country and the flinders. Have done 365,000k in this car, and various makes of tyres (about 4 before kumho), and these are the only ones I have gone to a 2nd set. No they are not perfect, no AT tyre is. But good average traction on bitumen (wet and dry) and in the rough. Air down well for sand. Play the pressures to suit the conditions. Do squeal a bit when pushed hard on dry bitumen, but at that stage the 85 series are tucking under.

Had my Kumho KL78 285 x 75 x 16 for over 4 yrs have done 94,000 km yes that s correct and they are about 5 mm off the wear indicators they have been excellent on my twin cab GQ patrol which constantly weighs over 2.5 t. Very quiet great in wet weather up here in the tropics good on gravel roads and on sand. They have been loosing a bit of grip in the wet for the past 10,000 km.probably due to hardening with age and being on a ute. Usually run around 40 - 42 psi. Just an update 102,000km 4mm off wear indicators 8/05/2016.

I bought these tyres because they had a nice, chunky tread pattern for an all terrain and they were cheap as chips. I can t understand why/how people can complain about these. For an all terrain tyre (and a chunkey one at that) they perform extremely well wet, dry, mud or sand. I run them at 12psi on sand and they love it. I run them at 40psi on tar and they handle better than the low profile cooper zeons I had previously. I love them.

Did a big trip across the top of Australia though kimberlies Kakadu Plenty hwy and hwy use. only done 20000k`s and they look a fair bit worn. Rotated twice in that time. no flats over some real rough roads and towed a heavy trailer and fully loaded Ford Ranger dual cab. I have one new spare remaining so I ll proberly buy another 4 before the next trip at the end of this year. A budget tyre that messes it up with the $300 plus tyres. others are well over priced I think.

i have these brand new tyres fitted to a nissan patrol wagon and have tested them over 2 months. they are a waist off my hard earned money and would not buy or recommend them again.i don`t have enough money to replace them and fear for my life when it rains and can not lend my vehicle when it rains.at $230 a tyre they were way over priced for their performance.

Kuhmo KL78 - so far so good

I m sorry but I have had a set of KL78 s in 265/65/17 on my Pajero for around 18,000k s now. I just cannot reconcile these other comments about wet performance. I drove a fully laden Pajero around Tasmania last April in very wet conditions including through the floods in the st Helens area and they were perfectly safe at 40psi. Did not skid, aquaplane or otherwise fail to handle these conditions. I have found them to be very quite for an A/T configuration and have driven them to the Grampians, around NSW and through Vic, throughout SA and up to Blanchetown at the end of this week with very little apparent wear. They have been rotated once so far. I have not even bothered to refit the other rims with the original HT s because I have been so impressed with them. At $225/corner they have been very good value so far.

Had these on in 235/85R16 format for about 10,000 Klms. Have used them on road in the dry and wet, and off road down to 12PSI. I really can t fault them. They are quiet and perform well in all conditions. I have taken them over some rocky terrain and on the beach and they were fantastic. Good tyres at a very reasonable price.

Continuous 4WD owner for over 30yrs, these are Great tyres, best I ve had on the Jeep, main standouts are they are also the quietest tyres I ve had on it, and still with aggressive enough tread for the bush, and they brake well in the wet, I know other people say this is not true for them in the wet, but I suspect it could be their car not the tyres. Very Happy with off road, road, and wet, but mostly love that I can hardly hear them, and at half the price of the big brands. It would be hard getting me to go to something else.

Pajero, 235/85 16 LT 10 ply tyres, no abs or traction control except the right foot. Various trips including NT, corner country and the flinders. Have done 365,000k in this car, and various makes of tyres (about 4 before kumho), and these are the only ones I have gone to a 2nd set. No they are not perfect, no AT tyre is. But good average traction on bitumen (wet and dry) and in the rough. Air down well for sand. Play the pressures to suit the conditions. Do squeal a bit when pushed hard on dry bitumen, but at that stage the 85 series are tucking under.

Had my Kumho KL78 285 x 75 x 16 for over 4 yrs have done 94,000 km yes that s correct and they are about 5 mm off the wear indicators they have been excellent on my twin cab GQ patrol which constantly weighs over 2.5 t. Very quiet great in wet weather up here in the tropics good on gravel roads and on sand. They have been loosing a bit of grip in the wet for the past 10,000 km.probably due to hardening with age and being on a ute. Usually run around 40 - 42 psi. Just an update 102,000km 4mm off wear indicators 8/05/2016.

I bought these tyres because they had a nice, chunky tread pattern for an all terrain and they were cheap as chips. I can t understand why/how people can complain about these. For an all terrain tyre (and a chunkey one at that) they perform extremely well wet, dry, mud or sand. I run them at 12psi on sand and they love it. I run them at 40psi on tar and they handle better than the low profile cooper zeons I had previously. I love them.

Bought a set of 31 x 10.5r x 15`s. total cost was $750 for 5. Did a big trip across the top of Australia though kimberlies Kakadu Plenty hwy and hwy use. only done 20000k`s and they look a fair bit worn. Rotated twice in that time. no flats over some real rough roads and towed a heavy trailer and fully loaded Ford Ranger dual cab. I have one new spare remaining so I ll proberly buy another 4 before the next trip at the end of this year. A budget tyre that messes it up with the $300 plus tyres. others are well over priced I think.

Shame they have the Kumho name
Replaced a set of Kumho Venture AT tyres with these. No where near the tyre we replaced. After 20000km replaced them with the original AT Kumho s we had on our ute. These KL78 s are dangerous in the wet!!!!!
