Top 3 Kumho Izen RV KC15 Reviews

Given 81% while driving a Toyota Landcruiser (265/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 5,000 spirited miles
We have these tyres on both our 4x4s, specifically an Audi A6 all-road and a Toyota Landcruiser, driven predominantly on country roads with occasional motorway journeys. Very pleased with performance, braking, and grip in ice /snow. Road noise no worse than original summer tyres, and wear is very even, the tyres are much more resilient than expected (in fact, we haven't bothered putting the summer tyres back on). I plan to put these on my new Landcruiser for the forthcoming winter.

Given 80% while driving a Dodge Journey (225/65 R17 H) on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
Absolutely perfect tires for temperatures bellow 7°C. Confident on dry and wet road. Breaking and handling are exquisite. As it concerns snow performance - the best winter SUV tires for deep snow, snow-covered asphalt and ice. No compromise with winter traction. Noise comfort is surprisingly good having in mind the lable that claimed they are very noisy tires. Hardly hear them bellow 100 km/h. Michelin and Continental winter tires with their commercial campaigns just seem ridiculous. They are more expensive in a way they cannot live up to their higher price in terms of winter performance. I claim the Kumho KC 15 are even better in the snow and ice.

Given 77% while driving a Hyundai 2011 Santa Fe CM 4x4 (235/60 R18) on mostly country roads for 28,000 easy going miles
Tested many times on different kinds of snow and always performed very well. The traction with AWD is surprisingly good and allows very secure pretty fast driving. Always safe on snowy descents, where the weight of the vehicle is your worst enemy, because the sideways behavior is reasonably grippy. Still have 4,5 mm after 28000 miles. One more winter and they're over.

Given 79% while driving a Land Rover Freelander 2 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 500 average miles
Very good tyre in the snow, i have driven through upto 2 feet with no issues at all. Good grip in the wet and dry, far quieter and better ride that my summer continetal tyres. Cant say to much about the wear rate as i have only driven about 500 miles on them. All in all a very good winter tyre which i would buy again.
