Subject:      Kumho RoadVenture ST Tires

I spoke with Kumho and the RoadVenture ST has a max inflation pressure of 44 psi. The inflation pressure was the only issue anyone seemed to have with this particular tire. The tires do have a nylon sidewall reinforcement band.

The specs are as shown on the Kumho Website here: http://www.kumhotireusa.com/pdf_files/787back.pdf

Size: P215/70R14 Load Rating: 96 Speed Rating: S Design Rim Width 6.5" Overall Diameter: 25.9" Section Width: 8.7" Tread Depth: 11/32" RPM: 805 U.T.Q.G.: 420AB

I will be ordering a set early this year. The Bridgestone RD603's I currently use have performed well, two have over 80,000 miles and two over 65,000 miles and the first two have about 10,000 miles left in them.
