Hear goes yet another tyre question. sorry! I'm still under sided about what to get and with a budget of about £50 a tyre I'm hoping something good will come up on ebay. No rush on this... its not like I can't shut my wallet for cash and need to of load some! LOL
I've just heard a few conflicting opinions about SAGs (which are much more than my budget new). There supposed to be nearly unstoppable off road and so I hear where THE tyre to have for trailing but have since been superseded. But I've also heard they wear out fast on the road and there handling is too compromised anyway.
Anybody know what Deestone Extra Traction tyres are like on and off road? They look good with there very aggressive side wall lugs. And I think I can get them very near my budget.
Colway MTs in 235/85R16s are cheap enough but the depth of tread isn't all that great for there width.
I've always thought Michelin XCLs looked like the bee's knees but there also as hard to find, as I don't think there made anymore.
Avon Rangemaster tyres as fitted to new defenders (?) look probably the best compromise. must be something in it to be OE! Some where for sale at £50 each, new with rims, but in Kent.. no good as I'm in Cheshire.
I do appreciate any comments, tyres are something you can only buy on recommendations. at least with engines you've got numbers to look up and crunch! Thanks! Toby
