Kumho Road Venture AT52 Features:
The Kumho Road Venture AT52 is engineered to excel in rugged terrain while maintaining surefooted handling in challenging weather conditions. Key features include:
Wintertime Traction: The AT52 earns the tire industry’s severe snow service rating and bears the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, ensuring confidence in wintry conditions.
Durable Tread Compound: The cut-and-chip resistant tread compound is symmetrically molded, striking a balance between off-road capabilities and on-road comfort. Its optimized polymer blend and complex structure carbon black enhance wear and traction on dry and wet roads.
Off-Road Performance: The high-void pattern provides essential biting edges for off-road traction, while the five-pitch block variation minimizes road noise. Extreme Side-Biters enhance grip in loose, rutted terrain and offer added puncture protection in the upper sidewall area.
Snow Traction: Robust shoulder block geometry with saw-tooth edges improves loose surface grip. Multi-angle, high-density sipes ensure light snow traction, meeting severe snow service requirements.
Internal Construction: The two-ply reinforced casing balances durability and ride comfort. Twin, high-tensile steel belts distribute the load across the footprint. An enhanced under tread gauge and a single nylon cap ply enhance comfort and puncture resistance.
Year-Round All-Season Performance: The new AT52 combines rugged terrain command with on-road comfort, making it an ideal choice for year-round driving.
Notable Features:
Enhanced Traction Tread Design: Deep lateral and wide sub-lateral grooves, along with high-density siping, provide clawing action off-road and improve wet performance.
Extreme Side-Biters: These rugged and aggressive side-biters offer a 100% increase in 3D biter depth compared to the predecessor, enhancing shoulder traction and providing additional puncture protection.
Wear-Resistant Compound: The complex carbon black compound with an optimal polymer blend ratio resists irregular wear and significantly improves cut-and-chip resistance, extending tire life by up to 20% compared to the previous model.
In summary, the Kumho Road Venture AT52 delivers a winning combination of performance, off-road capability, and year-round traction.
