I finally got the Kumho RoadVentures installed today. I haven't put too
many miles on them yet, but they are considerably quieter than the previous
Bridgestone 603V's. I posted some photos for those interested.

They do have a M&S markings, 2 ply nylon adn 44 max PSI sidewall markings.
They are very wide, I have less than 1/4" between the right rear and the
sliding door when it's open but I also have 6.5"w ET22 wheels also.


I special ordered them through my local Discount Tire store (Kumho KL-11)
and they were priced at $47.50 each, $263.00 installed.
