I will try and keep this thread updated over the life of these tires. Just put these on yesterday, specs are:
Brand: Kuhmo
Model: Road Venture MT
Size: 315 75/r16
Load Rating: E
Plies: 10 (3 in the sidewall)
Weight: 72lbs ea
Cost: $249 ea
Date Installed: Aug 1st, 2015
Mileage @ Install: 193,840
Initial impressions : A seriously meaty tire that replaced a very aged set of BF Goodrich KO's in the same size. Road noise is up a little. The BF's couldn't even be heard on the highway, these have a noticeable hum to them but its not enough to be irritating or require the radio. In fact I was surprised at how quiet they are for being such an aggressive looking tire. The tread blocks on these are very thick with wide spacing between a directional pattern. The tire itself has a lot of heft to it at 72lbs, definitely overbuilt. Ride quality is very good. They seem to run smooth at any speed and have actually softened the ride up some. Hoping to get them into some rock and mud here in the next few months and will report back with my findings.
