Triple Threat Sidewall Construction

• 3-ply polyester carcass sidewall provides superior puncture resistance and impact protection against rocks, roots, and trail debris
• Aggressive sidewall tread blocks enhance off-road bite in mud, sand, and gravel while shielding the sidewall and rim from abrasion and damage
• Robust bead protector guards the critical bead area against curbing and trail obstacles for added long-term durability

Tread Design & Performance Technology

• Interlocking center tread blocks deliver aggressive off-road grip while maintaining highway stability and a predictable feel on pavement
• Large groove volumes efficiently evacuate water, mud, and slush to maximize hydroplaning resistance and wet-weather confidence
• High sipe density increases grip on snow, ice, and wet surfaces for dependable all-season traction with reduced road noise
• All-weather compound optimized for consistent year-round performance in both warm and cold temperatures, promoting long, even tread wear

Winter & Stud Capability

• Pinned for studs (TSMI #15) — the KLEVER R/T is pre-drilled for optional traction studs in severe winter and icy conditions, where permitted by local regulations
• Deep, chunky lug pattern delivers confident performance in packed snow and slush without requiring a dedicated winter tire

Built to perform as aggressively as it looks — from the worksite to the trailhead and every mile in between — the Kenda KLEVER R/T KR601 is a versatile, high-performance rugged terrain tire for drivers who refuse to compromise.
