Kumho’s Road Venture RT Tire Blends On-Road Comfort with Off-Road Confidence

Описание: There’s something satisfying about hammering through a muddy trail and then cruising home comfortably on pavement. That’s exactly the kind of performance Kumho Tire targeted with the new Road Venture RT, its new rugged-terrain tire built for trucks and SUVs. The Road Venture RT sits between Kumho’s all-terrain and mud-terrain offerings, giving drivers weekday comfort and weekend capability.

We hit Hyundai Motor Group’s California Proving Grounds in the Mojave Desert to test the Road Venture RT across four distinct driving modules: mud, pavement, trails, and water-soaked autocross.

Kumho Tire Road Venture RT Technology

Kumho said it designed the tread to be aggressive and look like it can conquer any terrain, both on- and off-road. The design, robust construction, and new compound technologies enhance that, according to the manufacturer.

Rick Cunat, Managing Director at Kumho America Technical Center, said the design details deliver more than just looks.

"These features give the Road Venture RT an advantage in off-road applications," he said. "The angled sipes and zigzag grooves provide a high number of biting edges that allow the Road Venture RT to achieve high traction. These features enable the tire to achieve a high level of performance in snow and off-road."

Coming This Fall

The Road Venture RT will be available in 27 initial sizes from 17- to 22-inch fitments. Kumho will release more sizes in 2026. It includes a 30-day satisfaction trial, road hazard warranty, and a 50,000-mile treadwear warranty.
