New tires?

[BMiller7]

Staging everything associated with the ReadyLift 3/2 I'm about to install on my 2019 Expy Max.

I want to keep the factory wheels, but swap the tires for slightly larger tires.

Anybody have any words of wisdom to not pull the trigger on the Kumho Road Venture AT51.

Thanks in advance. (BTW) they are sale for $796 for a set of 4 at my local Big Brand Tire store.

Check recall
There was just a big tire recall on Coopers and several other tire store brand alternatives based on the same husk. Side wall failures.

I put just over 40k on a set on a 2007 suburban (p metric, not LT). Excellent wet and dry, ride was quiet and comfortable, both at speed and over railroad tracks and potholes. Did well in gravel, dirt, and on slick/steep boat ramps. Also did well on a couple snows and didn't slip and slide uncontrollably when the snow turned to ice. In Louisiana, so can't comment on full on winter conditions but they did what i needed them to. Probably not the best in true off road, but definitely better for me than the tire rack ratings would suggest overall. The wet grip started to fade a little (still safe, didn't hydroplane any worse than new, but if i got on it from stop on an invline, they would try to slip a little) the last couple thousand, but they seemed to have hardened quite a bit. The tread was still plenty deep (about half of starting depth), and unless I ran them hard, they probably wouldve lasted another 10-15k.

Great advice, they don’t have any recalls.
Definitely going to check recalls on all tires before I buy
