Is it worth it for the extra$$?

Ok guys I have narrowed my search of tires down to two different tires, the Kumho road venture MT and the Kelly safari TSR, they are both a 315/70/17, I want a tire that will look great and perform well on and off road, I got A quote from a tire shop for the kumho's mounted ballanced and a alignment for $1,150.00 they guy told me the Kelly's would be about 100 dollars cheaper and I
can't decide if it's worth saving the hundred dollars or not, so what do you guys think?? Thanks again for all the advice!!

Never had either, which ones you like the look of better?

I had the Dunlop Rover MT Maxx Traction on my old truck, the Kelly TSR is on the same platform so I would assume it would perform similarly. The Dunlops were solid tires while I didn't have truck long enough to give you any extended reviews....

I would do the Kumho Venture MT's. Better tires for sure and will have a better ride to them.

I like the looks of the kumho better, they both have gotten good reviews and I'm guessing both will get about 40,000 miles out of them or at least that's what I'm hoping for, I just wanted some outside opinions, thanks for your advice guys it helps a lot
