OZK Customs + Kumho Road Venture AT52 Tires

Unless you are ordering a van already intended for off-road use, like the Transit Trail or Sprinter Storyteller, your soon-to-be camper van probably comes with a standard set of road tires. So if you have true adventuring in mind and a desire to take your rig into the back country and well away from civilized inventions like asphalt, a new tire set-up is a must. All-terrain tires like the Kumho Road Venture AT52 offer many key benefits for conversion van owners who intend to take their van into challenging terrain where added traction, control, and stability are essential.

The tread design on these Kumho all terrain tires is manufactured for comfort and confidence both on and off road. It features large, rigid interlocking center tread blocks designed to improve tread life and provide control and stability in straight line driving. This interior block design contains a five pitch variation layout and a balanced void ratio, which work together to offer quieter on-road performance and increased adhesion and traction in off road situations. The shoulder blocks feature aggressive saw-tooth edges and thick side biters application for extra grip in true off-roading tight spots, as well as added protection against punctures.

The dramatically increased traction and control offered by these all-terrain tire features can make the difference in your confidence taking your van down dirt roads less traveled. Fully upfitted camper vans can see dramatic weight increases from their factory specs, and pushing their abilities off-road require tires purposefully designed with the tread grip and durability for the task. Tires like the Kumho Road Venture AT52 tires are built specifically to take heavy-duty vehicles like adventure vans down those tough roads with ease.

You may be hesitant about the rugged tread of all terrain tires if you have ever encountered the howl of particularly knobby tires at interstate speeds. But Kumho has engineered these tires to function smoothly on pavement, with the comfort and year-round traction you’d like to find in a road tire, as well as rugged prowess off-road. The innovative tread compound is engineered with an optimized polymer blend ratio for improved tread wear performance. The optimal polymer blend in addition to Kumho’s unique cut and chip resistant compound also reduces cracking and chipping in off-road conditions.

While this is not a true snow tire, the Road Venture AT52 is engineered to meet the tire industry’s snow service rating and the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, indicating a tire that is shows serviceable winter traction. The tread pattern is designed with multiple-angle grooves for enhanced all season traction in rain and snow, so you can be confident in your vehicle on the road, no matter the weather conditions.

The Kumho Road Venture all terrain tires come with a 50,000 mile tread warranty, and are truly manufactured as a multi-purpose On-Road and All Terrain tire, with the highest level of technological innovation and best features of heavy-duty tires for both situations.
