Kenda Klever MT Review

OK, I figured I would share this with everyone. Kenda tires are really well known in the mountain bike world ( I don't ride bicycles ) but on the recomendation of a buddy I picked up a set of these Kenda Kleaver MT's, 32x11.50R15

I needed to replace the totally shot, Good Year Wrangler Authority 31x10.50R15's I had on there so I bought a set of 4 Kendas shipped to my door for $596 through Amazon

I have a 4" Rough Country lift on my truck and these tires fit just perfect on my truck on the 15x8 soft eight wheels I had on there already.

I had Wally World mount and balance my tires and they all balanced real easy with no surprises or issues.

I dont have too many miles on these tires yet, but they are really quiet for a MT and the truck drives nice and smooth. I really like the very deep treads and sidewall pattern. So far I am very happy with these tires and the price ( they were cheaper than 31's for some reason)

i like those....remind me of the firestone MT's kinda. just way cheaper. $600 shipped aint too bad. I'll have to keep these in mind

Yeah, I agree, they reminded me of Firestones or even the Cooper STT. The price was the deal maker, can't beat a set of 4 32" MT for just under $600 to my door. The down side is that they only offer limited sizes right now, but from what I have been told they are working on bringing other sizes to market. They offer 31x10.50R15 and 32x11.50R15 in inches sizing, you can get more variety in their Metric sizes and even a 33" tire if you go with a LT285/85R16

I just can't believe how much darn tires cost these days!

I just put them on mine too. Same size. So far I'm really impressed. Excellent grip in snow and deepish mud. So far they've allowed me to use 2wd in everything I've thrown at them. Albeit nothing too crazy

I picked up some Dorman 611-199 lug nuts on Ebay and scored a set of '98 center caps and stuck them on today to finish off everything. I really like the look of the stock centers on soft 8 wheels.

Thanks for the review. That Klever tire looks aggressive.
