Very impressed for the price.
I have now put a couple thousand miles on my new set of Kumbo's and am very happy with their performance. Most of my driving so far has been on pavement with it split between city and highway driving. Their ride is definitely a little stiffer than the stock Firestone's were, but it is not annoying. The traction is impressive, even on the highway because they will track very confidently when you apply steering inputs. I haven't done any serious off-roading yet, but have been on dirt and gravel surfaces without any concerns or issues. I expect they will do everything I desire or can expect out of my Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk which is trail rates 3 or less. I am pleased and can recommend these tires to anyone who is looking for a multipurpose tires that spends most of its time on pavement.

Rugged and aggressive sidebiters in the sidewall protect the tire from damage
To conquer any terrain, Jeep, light truck, and SUV drivers must select tires that are capable of both on- and off-road driving, and all-terrain tires are designed to handle any terrain. The Kumho Road Venture AT52 features rugged shoulder blocks and sawtooth like edges which offer great off-road traction. Its multi-angle sipes and zigzag grooves boost grip on dry, wet, and light winter weather conditions. Having a sophisticated carbon black compound with the ideal ratio of polymer blends helps the tire withstand uneven wear, enhances cut-and-chip resistance, and lengthens tire life. In addition to forcing rocks, stones, mud, dirt, water, slush, and other debris out of the tread for consistent traction, the Road Venture AT52's balanced void ratio also lowers road noises and vibrations to improve ride comfort on paved roads. To protect the tire from damage, aggressive and tough sidebiters in the sidewall work together with a rubber compound that resists cuts and chips, while stiff center blocks increase handling and straight-line driving abilities.
