IanB 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Whats your favourite tyre for use during the season, how many prefer a 50/50 all terrain over full on mud plugging tyres...? BF Goodrich are a good choice of tyres although has anyone tried kumho or cooper tyres? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simoman 110 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I've got BF Goodrich all terrains on and they are very good off road, however Millet pointed out that road tyres would increase my mpg.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BF Goodrich are a good choice of tyres although has anyone tried kumho or cooper tyres? Well I have used coopers and they were ok but not the best. I had Kumho mud terrains on my old landrover 90 pickup it would go any where with them on. But the ultimate and the best to me is the BF Goodrich muds or all terrain. I had a set of all terrains on my last truck and the truck before that they had done 4 winters and were still half worn. I got about 35000 miles out of them never got that out of any other tyres. They might be £107 a corner but well worth it. Regards highlander Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mussells 0 Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 i use RECIP "trail" tyres and they are the terriers tackle!!! they are not as noisey as you would expect and off road they are awsome. they are similar to the baja claw by mickey thompson but at a fraction of the cost!

TOPPER 1,809 Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 C Mac for me at 30 quid each there good old mud pluggers and are pretty good on the road as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nelson 0 Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 I reckon this year i will mainly be treating myself to some Colway M/T cheap BFG rreplica tyre's for the less discerning motorist. Thats if i can find some 16" rims for the Pat mobile. Edited to add, i will get some Semperit 16" something or other all singing and dancing tyre's which i used to have on my Landrover. Anyone in Lincolnshire or close by, get to Wilgraves tyre's in Hibaldstow, they are well worth the money Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lucky 578 Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 i'll be putting another set of these on this season "GREENWAY MACHOS", i cant fault these at all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
landy 0 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 The mrs has got bfg all terrains on her disco,and so far they have proved to be really good,750 mud terrain remoulds on my series 3 are just the job for work and play a bit noisey on the road but its an old diesel so road speed doesnt really count . Not long bought a 300tdi defender thats got colway all terrains on and they work well, until i get round to rebuilding it up with a new chassis and then i want something a bit bigger and chunkier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
