The Kumho Road Venture A/T52 generally impresses users with its exceptional value, surprisingly low road noise for an all-terrain tire, and strong multi-condition traction including wet, snow, and light off-road surfaces. While the vast majority of drivers report a comfortable, confident ride, a small number of users note stiffer sidewalls or reduced cornering grip under specific conditions.
What owners say
No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
75/100From 221 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

The Kumho Road Venture A/T52 generally impresses users with its exceptional value, surprisingly low road noise for an all-terrain tire, and strong multi-condition traction including wet, snow, and light off-road surfaces. While the vast majority of drivers report a comfortable, confident ride, a small number of users note stiffer sidewalls or reduced cornering grip under specific conditions.
Pros
- Excellent value and competitive pricing compared to premium brands
- Surprisingly low road noise for an all-terrain tread pattern
- Strong traction in wet, snowy, and wintry conditions (3-peak mountain snowflake rated)
- Aggressive yet refined aesthetic that enhances truck and SUV styling
- Reliable dry handling and steady tracking on the highway
Cons
- Stiffer ride quality or firmer sidewalls reported by some drivers
- Reduced confidence or grip when cornering hard in wet weather
- Increased road noise reported by some users as the tires wear into mid-life
- Occasional reports of minor vibrations or shaking on heavy-duty truck applications
Worth knowing
- Drivers of heavy-duty trucks like the Dodge RAM 2500 diesel experienced an overly stiff or bouncing ride even after adjusting tire pressures.
- Owners of lighter SUVs and midsize trucks (such as the Toyota Tacoma and Jeep JK) praised the balance of comfort, confident highway tracking, and reduced harshness compared to previous aggressive all-terrain sets.
