Kumho Road Venture KL71

Well, I've been looking and looking and looking for prices on the 33x12.50R15 tires and I cannot find them ANYWHERE!!





I'm going to call Summit Racing and see if they can give me a price.

I called Summit and that is the only Kumho tire they do not sell. So I'm about to call Tire Rack and Discount Tire.

I did find out that these tires have been in foreign countries like Australia and South Africa waaay before they came here.

Well, I finally got a price for these badboys! Tire Rack told me $786 shipped to my door. That puts each tire at around $157 ea. for 5 tires. I won't be caught without a spare.

I'll call around locally and see what they can do.

The regular M/Ts or the KL71s? I haven't found a M/T that looks cool enough.
