The BEST All Terrain Tire for 2025
3rd of 5 tires
  • The Kumho excelled in wet conditions, achieving the best wet braking and handling times. It demonstrated a sharp steering response and maintained good noise levels. The tire also offered strong grip in most conditions.
  • The firm carcass made the ride less compliant over bumps and reduced stability during recovery from slides. It had the lowest aquaplaning resistance and scored lowest for comfort among the test group.
  • The AT52 showed a clear bias toward on-road performance with its dynamic handling characteristics and excellent wet grip. While capable in off-road situations, its firm nature and comfort compromises make it better suited to vehicles spending most time on pavement.

Latest Kumho Road Venture AT52 Reviews

Given 100% while driving a Toyota FJ Cruiser (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 100 spirited miles
Well, partly on the basis of this test (one of two I found), I bought these (31/10.5-15 - not whatever is shown, my size wasn't an option & nor was NA - fitted to a 1979 FJ 55 Landcruiser). Motivation was that I didn't require great off road performance (first gear 2WD high range around my paddocks is about as hard as it gets) but was interested in road handling & braking, especially in the wet, on bitumen roads when I use the Cruiser as a truck, carting or towing things.
In anecdotal reinforcement of Jonathan's remarks, it's a delight on these parameters of appraisal - decidedly the best tire I have fitted in 25 years of use of the Cruiser.

I fitted on my 4x4 a set of kumho at52 tires
I was expecting a lot from this tire unfortunately i was highly disappointed.
I do not recommend this tire. Its a trap it only works well the first year. I would definitely go back to BFGoodrich AT tires toughest all terrain tire ever.
